Work and projects

Resume

I'm a software developer and designer who tackles complex projects rife with uncertainty by helping break them down into approachable pieces and building well-architected solutions from those pieces, writing code that is used by billions of people every day and tools used by our teams to ship to billions of users with confidence, doing so before the curtain rises (so to speak).
