I am a full-stack engineer with significant experience across web and mobile. Most recently I've been working on a fantasy-sports website, which is used internationally and generates millions a year. In the last two years, I helped architect a React Native e-commerce app from scratch that conducted over $100 million in sales in its first year. I've also contributed to a highly trafficked e-commerce web app, and helped build and launch a retail food ordering kiosk. I take features from idea to implementation, from database queries and APIs to building out pixel-perfect UIs.

While I love solving technical problems, I also place high importance on delighting customers and delivering value for the business. I've built solid relationships with our business stakeholders and am happy to help translate the technical side of things to ensure we're all aligned. I've always valued strong communication with my peers.

My goal is to live on the forefront of technology, level up those around me, and deliver the best software possible to the world.
