About Chris McCarty
We are hiring full-stack engineers at kimkim. Contact me if you are interested!I\'m passionate about making it easy for more people to get the most out of their travels.Currently building kimkim.com to be the best place to plan your unforgettable trips by connecting you with local experts.
