Kirk's Random Brain Dump

A collection of stuff that interests me.

Kirk van Gorkom

I write code for a living. Some of it is cool, most of it works, and a little bit is shameful. I'm an irrepressible nerd in the city but flee to the mountains whenever time permits.

I'm obsessed with user experience design, user interfaces and beautiful things of any kind.

I'm a co-founder at Forge Apps. You should hire us.

I live with my beautiful wife and kids in Colorado Springs.
