Creative Thinker, Pragmatic Builder

Hi! I'm currently working as a software developer creating SPAs with cutting-edge technology like React, Redux, and TypeScript.

In my previous life, I was an editor, where I ran the gamut from children's magazines to legal resources to indie SFF. These days, I'm all about providing users with cohesive, meaningful, accessible, and intuitive experiences on the web.

I bring precision and conciseness — dry, easy-to-read code — as well as a passion for the bigger picture. I know what makes a good story, whether you're telling it through a website or a novel.

Talk to me about 💻 web development, 🎲 board games, 📚 books, or 🐈 your cat.
