I’m an experienced software engineer specializing in cloud-based backend services, with prior experience in frontend development. I’m passionate about building functional, maintainable, elegant products that delight developers and users alike. In our digitally connected world, I believe in the importance of well-crafted technology, not just for solving the big problems, but for all the small moments when something that works can make someone’s day just a little bit better.

At my current job, I build and maintain microservices and cloud infrastructure at a Fortune 200 retailer. I work on a multidisciplinary, Agile product team, promoting engineering best practices, developing strong technical foundations, and implementing innovative solutions, to help my organization achieve our business objectives and continually improve our customers’ and associates’ experience.

As a technology hobbyist, I often experiment with popular and emerging software and hardware to increase the breadth of my knowledge base. I’ve created my own tools to help automate repetitive or time-consuming tasks, as well as some simple games built on web technologies and animation frameworks. I also occasionally write online about learnings and trends in software development, the Internet, and technology as a whole.
