I'm a tech enthusiast with a twist – a philosophy graduate from Bates College who loves to solve complex problems with simple, user-friendly solutions. My journey has evolved into a passion for creative problem-solving in software engineering and UX design, making a tangible impact at companies like Propexo, Rentdrop, and Appointment Scanner.

My professional path is dotted with roles where I've married technical skill with a deep understanding of user needs. From enhancing the user onboarding process at Propexo and Appointment Scanner to building backend systems at Rentdrop, my work centers around turning complex technical challenges into seamless solutions.

Beyond coding, I'm deeply committed to continuous learning and innovation, always on the hunt for new technologies and fresh ideas. My entrepreneurial projects like https://coverlettuce.com and https://techy.domains reflect my dedication to merging creativity with technology in impactful ways.
