I’m Brent Ogden — a Colorado native born in Denver, with a passion for both technology and the outdoors. In my spare time, you’ll find me snowboarding in the winters, hiking in the summers, and cheering on my favorite teams. I’m a life-long, die-hard Denver Broncos fan, and from December through May, you’ll often find me at the 'Loud House' supporting the Colorado Mammoth. Professionally, I bring creativity, technical expertise, and a hands-on approach to every project I take on. I believe that success comes from balancing hard work with personal passion — which is why I’m always looking for opportunities that support both career growth and a healthy work-life balance. Whether building solutions, collaborating with teams, or tackling new challenges, I’m committed to helping my company succeed while still making time for the activities and passions that keep me energized

The creative and technical edge behind every project.
Turning ideas into results, one project at a time.
With several years of experience using Bootstrap, I specialize in building fully responsive websites that adapt seamlessly to any screen size. In today’s mobile-first world, I prioritize creating interfaces that are optimized for performance and usability across all devices.
Over the past several years, I’ve been dedicated to building projects with React, applying the skills I’ve developed through self-directed learning. I took the initiative to modernize several of my personal websites—rebuilding them from static HTML into dynamic, React-powered applications—to enhance functionality, maintainability, and user experience.
Recently, I’ve been deeply involved in Python development across both my current and previous roles—leveraging it for everything from UI automation to full-scale application development. I’ve created numerous scripts to streamline repetitive tasks within web-based tools, and most notably, I deployed a desktop application now used department-wide by the Legal team.
I have hands-on experience working with Adobe Experience Manager (AEM), where I was responsible for creating, updating, and customizing website content. I also played a key role in localizing these sites, ensuring accurate translations and seamless experiences across multiple languages.
Early in my career, I focused on WordPress development and built custom marketing landing pages using PHP for various clients. Many of my initial personal projects were WordPress-based, and I also integrated PHP-driven contact forms across several sites to enhance user interaction and lead capture.
