About
Licensed civil engineer turned full stack developer who enjoys applying engineering principles to building software. I've worked with modern web technologies while actively reviewing code, collaborating with other software engineers, and contributing to open source.
Currently, I'm focused on building accessible and maintainable web applications with unit and end-to-end testing, reliable CI/CD pipelines, and clear project documentation.
I also enjoy writing technical articles and staying engaged with the developer community through organizations such as Virtual Coffee and Freedom in Tech.
