Summary

I’m a seasoned software engineering leader who's obsessed with user experience.

I've been an individual contributor in both onsite and remote roles, a team lead, and a product and engineering leader responsible for building multiple agile teams. I’ve worked for startups, small design boutiques, and large corporations and thrived in each environment.

I believe in automation, agile methodologies, DRY principles, data driven feature development, and pragmatic minimalism.
