👋 Hello! I'm Chris Reed, a seasoned tech specialist based in Middle Tennessee. With nearly 20 years of experience in PHP, 5 years in Laravel, and a track record in electronics design and firmware programming, I'm adept at navigating the many facets of the tech world.

My specialty lies in Laravel 10 and Vue 3, where I've applied my skills to various domains, including the medical industry. One of my notable achievements includes designing a UL1069 approved Nurse Call system used by over 130 hospitals across the United States.

My passion lies in crafting robust, scalable solutions that serve a real-world purpose. I've written patient care software for large-scale enterprises and designed electronics that enhance the safety and functionality of medical facilities.

Lately, I've been focusing on open-source contributions to NativePHP, a set of software packages that enable the Laravel framework to run natively on Windows, Mac, and Linux computers. Through this, I'm hoping to make Laravel even more accessible and versatile for developers around the globe.

Your sponsorship is an investment in my work and the wider open-source ecosystem. These funds will support my continued dedication to open-source projects, helping to advance the Laravel community and push the boundaries of what's possible with technology.

With your backing, together, we can drive technology forward and make a lasting impact.
Let's build a brighter, more innovative, and exciting future! 🚀
