About Me

I’m an experienced, fast-moving product-focused software engineer who loves ideating on and implementing new features from 0 to 1.

I implement full-stack solutions using Ruby, Ruby on Rails, Javascript/Typescript, Node.js for the back-end, and Modern Javascript, Typescript, React.js, Vue.js, Next.js, and GraphQL for the front-end.
