About Me

Crafting software
with intention

I'm a software engineer based in Kentucky with a passion for building tools that make other developers' lives easier. My work sits at the intersection of great engineering and great user experience.

I specialize in full-stack web development with a focus on performance, developer experience, and open-source software. When I'm not writing code, I'm thinking about system design, contributing to OSS projects, or writing about the craft.

Currently open to interesting problems. If you're building something ambitious, let's talk.
