## About

```text
At Modern Tribe, I architected and led delivery of the LendNation and Speedy Cash lending platforms, serving 18,700+ monthly users and handling about 12,600 loan applications a month. I proposed a Next.js, Vercel, and Turborepo platform, defined typed and validated application data contracts, and helped the business reach its annual revenue target a quarter ahead of plan.

At the NBA, I served as lead engineer on the replatforming of the D-League and WNBA team sites, co-architected a high-availability WordPress multisite on AWS, and built the NBA Replay Center. Across my work, I’ve also delivered university websites, reusable React components, and WordPress solutions, while mentoring engineers and setting coding standards.
