02About

I'm a front-end engineer who cares about the details that make an interface feel right — performance, accessibility, clean state and design systems that let a team move quickly without breaking things.

Over the past four years I've shipped production apps in React, TypeScript and Next.js across fintech, marketplaces and e-commerce — as an engineer on a team and end-to-end on my own products.
