About

Project-driven front end developer with a passion for thoughtful UI design and collaboration.

I've always sought out opportunities to learn new things and take on challenges. My life and professional experience has taken many paths — from attending graduate school in Salt Lake City, to working as a synthetic biology researcher in Italy, to developing safety testing methods for cannabis in Colorado, to being an entrepreneur — I've never stopped engaging my curiosity and desire to contribute, collaborate, and solve problems.

As a web developer, I enjoy working closely with clients to build platforms which serve their business needs, share information, and celebrate their ideas. Being a web developer is a natural fit for utilizing my obsessive attention to detail and my love for creating things. Forever an optimist I believe that when we collaborate we can literally change the world. That's why I'm excited to make a big impact for you and your company.
