About

I'm a full-stack software engineer with 6+ years of experience specializing in frontend and UI development across SaaS products. I care as much about how an interface feels as how it works, and build with an eye for composition, constraint, and craft.

I'm comfortable with ambiguity, since it leaves room to make good calls as things take shape. I favor momentum over perfection in code meant to evolve, and I'm equally comfortable defining a direction as I am executing on it.
