About

I'm particularly interested in empowering others, whether it be users or other developers. I'm most passionate about helping people to be more educated, productive, empathetic, and connected. I excel at software design, and I prefer roles where I have other engineers to enable using that skill. Though I'm a generalist, I do specialize in API design.
