I am a software developer who likes building clean, useful things for the web, desktop, and live production.
About Me
I build projects that look good on the frontend and work well behind the scenes.
Most of my work has been around full-stack apps, realtime systems, and tools for esports broadcasts. I enjoy figuring out how to make something feel simple on the surface while still doing a lot behind the scenes.
