What I'm looking for

Seeking a mission-driven company that supports community involvement and values charitable efforts.

I am a dedicated UI engineer with a 17-year career in creating interactive web experiences across diverse industries, including education, nonprofits, and venture capital. My professional journey includes significant roles at Carbon Robotics, Pioneer Square Labs, and ExtraHop Networks, where I contributed to the development of various software products and systems.

At Carbon Robotics, I was the first frontend hire and developed a web platform for managing agricultural robots. I also designed a native app for on-site operations. Previously, at Pioneer Square Labs, I worked closely with founding CEOs to build software products from scratch, demonstrating my versatility across multiple industries.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Human-Computer Interaction from the University of Washington. I am committed to giving back to my community, serving on the boards of local organizations. I seek a mission-driven employer that values charitable efforts and community involvement.
