Let’s build something wonderful

Fusing a design background with years of software development experience, I've helped both early-stage and established companies solve problems and turn ideas into reality. My roles tend to involve full-stack web development with a smattering of user experience and product design. In my ideal workflows, I'm quickly creating prototypes, iterating and refining them, then refactoring to produce clean, well-tested, production-ready work. I'm particularly fond of maps, data visualization, and bright colors.

I'm currently living in Stockholm, Sweden for a year. I'm currently seeking remote-friendly work or employment in Stockholm, either on a contract or full-time basis. I have experience working and communicating well on distributed teams.

Technical Expertise

I started building things on the web around 1997, experimenting in hand-coded HTML, then Perl and PHP. Since 2007 I've built web apps, tools, and services primarily in Ruby, with occasional detours into Python and Node. On the front-end, I've built complex interfaces both in vanilla JavaScript and with the help of tools like Backbone, D3, and Angular. The language I'm most interested in playing with next is probably Elixir.
