I'm drawn to problems nobody owns yet. More than once I've been the first engineer on a new thing: a lending product that had to work outside the app it was born in, a migration nobody wanted to start, a notification system that had to be right the first time. I like finding the manual workaround people already use and turning it into something that takes five seconds.

I've spent the last few years on large React and Vue codebases, real-time systems, and the seams between teams and services. Frontend is where I'm strongest, and I care about the whole problem, from the API contract to how the screen feels. On the side I ship my own products: an iOS party game and a build recommendation tool for Deadlock.

Away from the keyboard I'm usually playing soccer, playing games, or reading about the next thing I want to build.
