Ross R.

I'm the founder of Point Blank Dev- my ship on the high seas of the internet as a web dev freelancer. Over the last few years. I've completed countless web development projects for lots of customers. I work most projects solo to build out elegant, performant applications for founders- but I've have a few contractors I've worked with and mentored over my career. When necessary, I know I can trust them to help me get projects across the finish line when projects are on a tight timeline.
