About

I’m a software engineer focused on making things fast, building products people love, and making my team’s life easier. At Adobe, I focus on solving complex performance challenges and modernizing our development workflows. I also built Gravity Box, growing it from a 48-hour prototype into a mobile game played by over 400,000 people. I believe lifting up the whole team is the best way to build something great, whether that’s mentoring an intern or presenting a technical deep-dive to share what I've learned. I love chatting about web performance, DX, and applied AI. Feel free to reach out!
