About

I’ve been building things on the web since 1998, back when HTML and CSS required pixel-by-pixel handcrafting and there was no shortcut for understanding why it worked. Over the years I have worn many hats in small creative teams—frontend development, graphic design, motion graphics, print, email, and now AI-assisted production workflows.

At my core I am an artist, and that thinking shapes how I approach every project. I thrive at companies where handling multiple aspects of a project can make a real difference, I collaborate well and build solid working relationships, but I do not need a lot of oversight to get things done.
