A full stack software engineer, with particular focus on front-end web application development, in Seattle, WA with over 16 years of professional experience.
Most recently, I helped modernize and migrate Rival IQ from Backbone and Marionette to functional React as a Staff Software Engineer. Though I'm most proficient in JavaScript (JS) and accouterment, like HyperText Markup Language (HTML) and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), I've dabbled in Python, PHP, C#, and C++. In my free time, I like building software with Lisp (Clojure/Script) and Scheme (Chez Scheme).
To date, my most successful and interesting personal project is a ClojureScript micro-blogging platform, still used daily by friends and family, called Zot World.
You may find me these days animating a pen pal to teach me French, trying to create podcasting tools, building a private cloud media player, or tinkering on a simple, no-server podcast player. I also help friends with small businesses meet their software needs. Nascent game development ambitions have led me to start playing with Blender and Godot, though there's nothing quite ready to share.
If I am not there, I could be chasing two screaming children throughout the house in vain, in the kitchen cooking or baking naturally leavened bread (like this focaccia), jamming on music/mixes (like this Halloween party mix), writing speculative fiction of dubious quality, or struggling to learn French on Duolingo (or with Françoise).
