ABOUT ME

Senior full-stack developer

Two things of my favorite things in life are solving cool problems and helping people, so I truly can't wait to get started on your project. After 8+ years of coding/engineering experience, I'm constantly looking for the best solution for the problem at hand, taking into account that "best" can mean so many things depending on the stage and nature of the project.

In my perfect world, coding best practices are determined early and followed consistently, resulting in beautifully clean, functional and extensible codebases. This is not that world, so I am here to help you get as close as possible, whether it's by exploring architectural options, refactoring messy code, hunting down those pesky bugs. I also love building from scratch, so I'd be happy to go to town on a feature or segment of your project.

Let's have a chat about how I can help you!

Most of my frontend work has been in React, including multiple enterprise level web apps. I love taking a design or functional spec and breaking it up into the component puzzle pieces. I do my best to look ahead at future needs and build components to be reusable wherever possible.

Professionally: 4 years, personally: ???. I started dabbling in HTML and CSS back in my Neopets days, and I've been futzing around with it in some form ever since. I love standardizing and DRYing out CSS sheets, determining and following class conventions, and getting fancy and functional with things like variables and formulas.
