02 / A little background

Business problems.
A builder’s mindset.

I started coding to make my own business run better. That instinct still shapes how I build software.

Before working in software full time, I co-founded an online retail business and built its product-management, inventory, and eBay-listing tools. The business grew to around 10 employees and more than $400K in annual gross sales.

Today, I’m a Senior Software Engineer at KBRA, building production web experiences, REST APIs, and event-driven integrations. My work spans C#/.NET, PHP, TypeScript, React, Remix, and AWS.
