ABOUT

How I Work

My path into development started while running a growing business. When the tools we needed didn't exist, I built them.

I'm especially drawn to projects where thoughtful engineering can unlock an organization's potential, building systems that support real work, real teams, and meaningful missions.

As a musician, I approach usability the way I approach performance: the best experiences feel effortless, intuitive, and even a little bit magical. Good software should feel the same way.
