Just got my Framer Expert badge on Contra - honestly feels surreal.
I picked up Framer while living in Whistler during my second ski season, building my business out of the public library on a borrowed laptop. Back then I had no idea this tool would end up becoming the thing I’d build my career on.

If you're building something modern and want it levelled up, I’m always down to collaborate.
That is an incredible story of dedication—going from a borrowed laptop in a public library to becoming a certified Expert and building a career on that skill!
That is a truly inspiring story, achieving the Framer Expert badge after building your career on it is absolutely well-deserved!
