My background

As of 2024-12-28, I am a full stack design engineer. I love owning the entire product development cycle, from research, to design to development - building things on the web brings me joy!

Who I am professionally

Currently, I am a Engineer at Fareharbor 🙅‍♂️. On the technical side I have experience shipping features while working with enterprise scale codebases with Python (Django & Fast API, langchain, openai), Javascript (Angular, Vue, Astro, Elleventy), css (scss, vanilla css & tailwind), and semantic html. I have over seven years of design experience in various roles. From running my own design agency to working within a product team to full stack development on various engineering teams. This site serves as a playground for me to tinker with the web and as a platform for me to voice the occassional and often loosely held opinion. This site was made with 11ty, njk, scss and javascript.
To see some of my existing work, checkout my behance or my other site.

Here are some of the things I care about:

Building better experiences for the web, web accessibility, making websites faster, and learning about new languages. Currently - I am nerding on neural networks and python!

Let's work together
