Quality over speed
I'd rather take the time to do it right than ship something half-baked. Clean code, thorough testing, and attention to detail are non-negotiable.
↓ Well-written code is cheaper than the bug fix.

What I value
Four principles, honestly held.
Not a company manifesto. Just the things I've learned lead to software that doesn't get thrown out in a year.
Clear communication
No jargon, no surprises. I keep you informed every step of the way with plain-language updates and transparent timelines.
↓ If I can't explain it to you, I don't understand it yet.
Real-world results
Technology is a means to an end. I measure success by the impact on your business — fewer manual processes, better data, happier teams.
↓ The best code is the code your team stops thinking about.
Long-term thinking
I build software that scales. Today's decisions should make tomorrow's growth easier, not harder.
↓ Write it so the next person (or future you) can read it.
A short history
How I got here.
Where it started.
Front-end dev at Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, turning designers' Photoshop comps into production HTML. Learned that even a pixel out of place matters when 170 children's hospitals are counting on you.
Agency life.
Full-stack dev at Net Media Group — building marketing sites, running SEO campaigns, and optimizing conversion funnels for brands scaling into North American markets. Where I learned that great code means nothing if nobody can find it.
Full stack engineer at a nonprofit.
Only developer at Utah Youth Village — a nonprofit serving thousands of at-risk youth and families. Built their public sites, then every internal tool their programs ran on: case management, evaluations, client tracking. Turns out being the only dev means you learn everything fast.
Started freelancing.
Began taking on freelance projects alongside my full-time role — full-stack web solutions for business owners, marketing professionals, and anyone who needed a custom build instead of another template. Word of mouth did the rest.
Today.
Still here, still answering my own emails. Somewhere between a contract developer and a one-person software studio.
