What I'm looking for

I'm looking to own high-impact frontend architecture, modernize complex applications, improve performance, and build shared systems that help product teams ship faster.

At Mobile Commons, formerly part of Upland Software, I led the migration of a 50K+ line Knockout.js monolith to a Next.js 14 application with React Server Components, cutting page load time by 65% and feature delivery from three weeks to four days.

I build scalable frontend systems across React, Next.js, TypeScript, Redux, and RTK Query. I established a Storybook-documented compound component library adopted by three product teams, reduced JavaScript bundles by 40%, and owned critical production releases while maintaining 99.9%+ uptime.

Previously at Doodleblue Innovations and Arosys Technologies, I improved page speed, introduced Jest testing that raised coverage to 75%, built Node.js and Express APIs, and delivered Angular interfaces with OAuth and calendar integrations.
