Hello! I’m a product-focused engineer who enjoys crafting high-quality experiences and obsessing over the smaller details. I approach challenges with a pragmatic, positive attitude and love collaborating with and supporting others.

Outside of work you might find me sampling local craft beers, tinkering with retro game emulators, or brewing a new Magic the Gathering deck. Work-life balance is very important to me and I highly value flexible, supportive teams.
