about me


I'm a fullstack software developer specializing in UI modernizations, optimizations, and reusable component libraries to elevate user experience and application performance.

Before transitioning into software development, I spent over a decade as a professional musician; performing, recording, and teaching. I'm interested in the intersection between technology and music, and building communal platforms where musicians can share their work freely and be compensated fairly. I'm passionate about building software and tools that are purpose-driven, widely accessible, and sustainable.
