ABOUT ME

I’m a software developer with a background in architecture and design, and these days prefer building with code. I enjoy problem solving and collaborating to create innovative projects!

I believe that the small, everyday interactions people have with the world around them - both digitally and physically - have the possibility to create a better, more equitable world. For the past 6 years I have designed spaces that positively impact peoples lives, and these experiences help me thoughtfully craft code with the end user in mind.

My love of learning languages inspired my interest in programming along with my constant drive to create - whether it be homemade pasta, ceramics, or a JavaScript app. This drive, along with my ability to quickly pick up new technologies, makes me easily adaptable to any role and tech stack.
