I've delivered production web applications from ideation through deployment for PlayOn Sports, Mindbody, ClassPass, Cake Insure, and i3logix. My strongest work is in React, TypeScript, and Next.js, supported by hands-on full-stack experience across Node.js, GraphQL, gRPC, Kotlin, and PostgreSQL.

At Mindbody and ClassPass, I led a secure payment system serving roughly 30 countries, created a feature-flagging system for a large legacy codebase, and managed the migration of New Mindbody from legacy ASP to Next.js and GraphQL ahead of schedule with zero rollout incidents or regressions.

I've also built Playwright end-to-end testing for GoFan, improved Mindbody web vitals by 50–90%, and built Cake Insure's insurance quoting, binding, and renewal products. I use Claude, Codex, and other agentic tools daily to ship production code, while strengthening teams through mentoring, code review, and engineering leadership.
