How I Work
I'm passionate about problem solving. I'm at my happiest when I'm deep in a tricky problem, engineering a robust solution.
I build full stack web applications in close collaboration with clients, working together to ship the best possible solutions.
When building I focus on developer velocity by building great tooling for shipping clean code fast, architecting systems that scale effortlessly, designing great UX to delight users, and keeping feedback loops tight so we're always building the right thing.
