Summary

I've been building websites and applications since I first got my hands on a computer. I have years of experience with Angular, and have focused primarily on React/Redux in the last few years.

I also have experience as a designer, and greatly enjoy the visual aspect of the front-end, with UX, animation, and and interaction design. I've worked for years in webGL and GLSL, optimizing 3d or hardware accelerated experiences for desktop and mobile.

Work Experience

Senior Software Engineer
Hipmunk | Apr 2017 - Apr 2019
Python
React
Redux
As an engineer at Hipmunk, I built features and new products for the website from concept to production. With a focus on the mobile website, I added the cars search vertical to the mobile web, and built a hybrid page API to implement the car search into the native apps through a webview.
Front-end Developer
IGN | May 2014 - Dec 2016
Angular
WebGL
JavaScript
As the tech lead for the Design and Creative team, I transitioned the platform and internal tools from Flash to HTML5/Javascript, and built a custom suite of tools and templates for the design team to be able to quickly add new features, animations, and interactive elements into the website. I also build several interactive mini-sites for the various editoral campaigns IGN would run, including interactive animations and 3d experiences using webGL.
