Hello, I am a full-time freelancer with ten years of development experience.

I am an independent software developer with 12+ years of experience; fully independent for 4+ years. I thrive in murky waters, picking up poorly maintained and documented projects, and stabilizing legacy systems. I have the most experience with Ruby on Rails from my 9-5 jobs in the past, however, I can quickly get up to speed with almost any language and framework, from traditional software stacks to mobile development in Flutter. I enjoy working with clients who have had bad experiences with traditional developers.

I help forward-thinking businesses solve non-sexy problems and change the world. I've helped my clients ship first-class products – from massive workflow engines to productized ML frameworks, HIPAA/SOC-compliant HR platforms, and company-wide employee engagement tools that drastically change the way teams collaborate. I've co-founded 3 tech startups in just as many industries and have accumulated over 25,000 hours of freelance development and consulting experience. I love technology and building beautiful products, but more than anything I'm a people person – I love meeting new people and hearing their story, what they're passionate about, and what they want to do in the future. That kind of energy is incredible and inspiring. I also started Shard, a boutique software development agency with a presence in Portland, Seattle, and Atlanta. We've built products used by companies of all sizes including JPMorgan Chase, KPMG, and motivated entrepreneurs with groundbreaking ideas. Recent work includes productizing CRISPR processes with a leading biotech firm, pay equity & transparency projects with a high-power startup exiting stealth, and automated power grid optimization for next-generation energy company.
