Sound Familiar?
We’re two weeks overdue and only half way complete. We’re going to have to go back and ask to increase the budget.
It worked on my machine, but something broke when it went to production.
I have no idea why she left, I thought she was happy here.
I wish I’d thought about that before I started coding. The only way back is to revert three days worth of work.
The truth is your agency doesn’t have to make these mistakes. These problems surface by a lack of effective development processes under a dedicated, well-structured leader. Tough to hear, I know…
Now for the upside. Things don’t have to stay this way forever! I offer a range of consulting services from 1-on-1 developer mentoring to top-level leadership advisory engagements for your agency. Get in Touch and let’s discuss how we can start getting your development team back on track as soon as possible.

What Clients Are Saying
Philip ZaengleOwner of Zaengle Corp
Garrett is an outstanding developer; he’s able to do granular work while keeping the big picture in mind. However, what really makes him invaluable is the rare ability to communicate clearly and effectively with clients while leading a technical team – in that regard he’s in a category all to himself.
Shawn MaidaFounder and Partner at Foster Made
Garrett joined our team for a nearly year-long engagement to assist in the audit, enhancement, and launch of a business-critical application for the nonprofit sector. His technical expertise, soft skills, and business acumen made him an incredibly valuable member of the project team. Garrett exceeds not only as a front-end and back-end developer, but also as a technical team lead and system architect. I would highly recommend him to any organization and look forward to working with him again in the future.

About Garrett
Hi! I’m Garrett St. John and I’ve been in software development for nearly fifteen years. Throughout my career, I’ve helped lead multiple development teams; whether it be for my previous design and development shop, Bold, or for the variety of clients I have served since then through my consultancy.
I’ve helped teams big and small to establish effective development processes, improve company culture and communication, build internal employee onboarding and career growth processes, and most importantly ship high-quality code on time and within budget.
