The short version
I’m a senior full-stack software engineer with 6 years of experience building for the web. My degree is in Experience Architecture — Michigan State’s blend of computer science and UX design — so I come at engineering with user-centric design and accessibility in mind, and I specialize in minimal, effective products with a focus on ethical and profitable outcomes.
Today I’m a Senior Full Stack Software Engineer at EY, leading technical design and architecture for mission-critical applications and building scalable Go and Python backends behind custom React TypeScript front-ends. I also founded RangerCode, where I develop custom solutions for clients and oversee CI/CD, design teams, and the business side of shipping software. Code review and mentoring are a big part of how I like to work.
