The rare engineer who understands both the code and the customer.

I'm a full stack engineer with 5+ years of experience building production-grade systems and client-facing products. I started in marketing, fell in love with coding somewhere along the way, and have spent the last 6 years running a boutique digital creative agency while working corporate engineering roles simultaneously. I build things end to end: strategy, brand, code, launch, growth.

I speak: HTML, CSS, SCSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, Python, SQL, GraphQL

I build with: React, Next.js, Angular, Node.js, Express, NestJS, GatsbyJS, React Native, Tailwind, Styled Components

I store data in: PostgreSQL, MongoDB

I also know: Git, Figma, Prisma, Mongoose, Sanity.io

I care about the person on the other side of the screen as much as I care about the code. My marketing background means I'm always thinking about why something is being built, not just how.

You can either sit in shit or do something about it. I tend to do something about it.
