Senior Software Engineer

I build fast, accessible web experiences with React, TypeScript, and modern CSS.

25+ years in front‑end engineering across product and agency teams. Pragmatic, collaborative, and detail‑oriented. Based in Phoenix, AZ.

About

I've been a web developer for over 25 years and have seen many frameworks, libraries, and automation tools introduced during that time; making things more complex and easier at the same time.

My other passion is music, and I'm also the drummer in the Phoenix band Rock Steady. I enjoy seeing live music, hanging with my family and friends, good whiskey, and craft beers.

Skills

Front‑end focused with breadth across modern web stacks and CMS.
