Fullstack development, primarily focusing on frontend using Expo + ReactNative for web and native iOS/Android platforms. Also worked on Golang backend services.

One of my favorite projects at Merit is being the tech lead on adding localization support to our Member App, starting with supporting languages other than English. Researched and proposed short and long term strategies for internationalization. Worked with stakeholders to come up with a stage-appropriate process for managing translations given MVP launch time and budget constraints. Wrote documentation and added additional tooling to help preserve developer experience while ensuring the process is manageable. This multilingual initiative helped the company secure new deals.

Another project is leading the frontend development of the Share Merits initiative. Built the foundations of the Share Merits web app and supporting flows in the Member App. Worked with product to go through initial product requirements, identify major pieces needed and level of effort for each, and prioritize accordingly for MVP and subsequent versions. Break down and create tasks from product stories with ease of tracking and visibility, and distribution of work across other devs in mind.

Hopped aboard as a generalist developer first working on projects revolving around the Athenascope website built in React for a handful of weeks, then quickly transitioned into fullstack React Native mobile development of the mobile app shortly from its beginning up to alpha, closed beta, and open beta launches.

My favorite projects here include:

I have been primarily focused on mobile app feature development, doing a blend of backend and frontend work as needed to support said features I owned from start to finish and beyond, working closely with product and design along the way. I really enjoyed working the last couple of months doing primarily user facing product engineering, which plays a lot to my key strengths of working together with the product team and making their ideas come to life, give or take a few compromises as needed to meet company goals of course.

HTTP/C++ API related backend work, and React frontend work.

I've done just about all of it: frontend, backend, and development and operations.

My favorite projects here include:

You may find me all over the place as needs arise. Need to scale infrastructure a bit more? I'm there in AWS launching new instances, ready to get a build installed and ran. New feature request in iOS? I got you covered with opening up new methods in the REST API then consequently updating the app's code, though I hope it's Swift not Objective-C (I'm in love with the former). Roku woes? Might be Basic, might be BrightScript. I try to React appropriately, even React-Natively in Android if the opportunity arises. Otherwise you'd find me working with NodeJS for our web browser experience.

I'm also the resident Otamatone player, and while I still suck at the violin, I can fall back on my home instruments, vocals and keyboard.
