Founder & Full Stack Developer

Austin, TX · Serving Clients Remotely Across the U.S.

Hey, I'm Alex — a full stack developer and the founder behind SM Code Forge. I was born and raised in Weslaco, Texas, am the son of immigrants, and a first-generation college graduate from the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley.

Before launching SM Code Forge, I built enterprise software systems with a Fortune 500 team, shipping scalable applications, APIs, and modern interfaces. Today, I bring that same engineering rigor to small business websites through clean design, thoughtful UX, and high-performing code tailored to your goals.

Unlike large agencies, I keep the process personal. You work directly with the person building your site — no outsourcing, no confusing handoffs, and no bloated pricing.

When I'm not coding, I enjoy working on cars, fishing, and exploring new tools that help businesses grow smarter online.

MY APPROACH

Performance First

Every site I build is optimized for speed, SEO, and mobile — because slow websites lose customers.

🎯

Quality Code

I bring enterprise-level engineering standards to every project — clean, maintainable, and built to scale.

🤝

Personal Service

You talk directly to me — the person writing your code. No middlemen, no hand-offs, no surprises.

LET'S BUILD SOMETHING GREAT
