Hey there 👋
Welcome to my website! Come learn more about me and how I make cool things with code.
who i am
I'm a full-stack software engineer in Portland, Oregon. I have a diverse background which includes coding bootcamp, financial tech administration in higher ed, and getting my MBA.
I'm into difficult puzzles and good design. I'm not concerned with a specific tech stack, but rather motivated by working with passionate and uplifting people.
I'm open to both full-time and contract opportunities right now. Talk to me.
what i'm good at
- frontend web development (I absolutely love TypeScript and building pixel-perfect CSS)
- backend development (I'm experienced in designing semantic and intuitive APIs, especially in serverless environments)
- writing SQL (for nearly 10 years now, since I taught myself as a student worker in college)
- scripting and automation (in my free time I like to write automations on my phone in javascript or with iOS shortcuts)
- analytical thinking, but also empathetic, clear communication
languages and technologies
- TypeScript, JavaScript, Node (anything JavaScript adjacent)
- React, Next.js, Redux
- Tailwind, Material UI
- semantic HTML and CSS (either plain old CSS or whatever system you're using)
- Scala, Python
- SQL (mostly PostgreSQL) and noSQL systems like DynamoDB
- GraphQL, Apollo, URQL, RESTful APIs
- AWS (S3, Lambda, AppSync, CloudFormation, SQS, SNS, etc)
some things i've built
OpenDelta App
A live, responsive dashboard app for a cryptocurrency startup
that I architected and built from scratch for a client (NextJs,
TypeScript, & MaterialUI) (development ongoing)
Elite Commercial Door
A landing page I built for a client's commercial door business
(AstroJs, Typescript, Decap CMS). Designed by
Dustin Witzel.
Ball is Lyf3
A companion app for my private ESPN fantasy basketball league to
compare weekly stats across all teams
SongBird
A simple markdown editor for lyrics that always displays the
entire song (this is a
basic app I use on my laptop when jamming; it's
not recommended on a narrow screen)
And more...
Take a look at my Github repositories page to see more cool things (or an embarrassing array of old projects that likely don't work anymore, you decide).where i've worked
I'm an independent contractor who works with all types of clients.
My last full-time gig was at high-growth fintech, FlowFi, where I was the only cold hire on the engineering team, and moved quickly from junior to mid. I regularly contributed to every layer in the stack, front to back.
