I write about frontend craft, backend systems, and engineering leadership.

How I help teams deliver

Frontend craft and full-stack depth

I bring staff-level frontend experience and senior backend experience. I can work through a complex system, build the feature, and make the interface feel great to use. I use AI heavily in my own work.

Engineering leadership

Working with people is one of my biggest strengths. I bring management experience and influence without authority: making expectations clear, having the direct conversations, and helping teammates get unstuck.
