Tech

Over the years I’ve had the opportunity to build, integrate, and maintain applications from the ground up. My approach is deeply rooted in problem-solving, selecting the most appropriate tools and frameworks not just from a technical perspective, but with careful consideration for the business goals at hand.

Design

I was an illustrator and graphic designer for print, websites, and game UIs before becoming a developer. My experience with design processes really helps me in the design and planning stages of building apps. This background allows me to bridge the gap between aesthetics and functionality, ensuring that both the user interface and experience are intuitive and visually appealing.

UX

Before transitioning into development, I worked as an illustrator and graphic designer, specializing in print, web design, and game UIs. This background in design processes has been invaluable in the design and planning phases of app development, allowing me to approach projects with a strong foundation in both aesthetics and user experience.

Clean Code

Companies have ground to a hault due to dev teams technical debt, often not becoming evident until months or years in. My experience with everyday practices, such as knowing when to refactor code, organize classes, and manage folder structures, helps mitigate this risk and maintain the integrity of a project over time.
