My name is Topher Wilson, I’m a developer, programmer, & consultant. I help lots of great people make lots of awesome things. I also write now and then, and dabble in indie dev.

I’m based in Idaho Falls, Idaho, where my wife and I have been raising our children for the last 10+ years. I travel extensively with our family (we’re in Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, and Greece this summer), surf whenever I can, love to run but rarely do. I build in a variety of frameworks and languages, across sites, apps, and games.

If you’d like to chat shoot me an email – it doesn’t just have to be about work, just saying “hi!” can be cool too.
