I have been a Architect / tech lead / senior engineer for multiple large scale production web applications. All of these applications were HTML/CSS/Javascript Single Page Apps (SPA) applications. I have a wide breadth of experience building modern Javascript applications. Also, I have experience using Visual Studio to build an Angular SPA. I know the benefits and constraints of building SPA's.

Helped me understand my needs for Web Api and OAuth security features. He'd try to help you out at his best even those are not in his expertise area. I'd definitely recommend him to my other friends who needs help with their technical problems or for start up with a new tech.
