About
I've developed a deep appreciation for the philosophy and craft behind scalable design systems and micro-frontend architecture. My mission is to build intuitive tooling that elevates the work of engineering and design teams, resulting in more cohesive software products and improved user experiences. I bring over 7 years of experience building UI components, collaborating with design teams, and driving consistency across large distributed codebases.
I live in the beautiful mitten state (go blue) and when I'm not deep in code, you'll find me spending time with my family, taking hikes, watching sci-fi + horror films, or playing classical guitar.
