From the moment I witnessed my first website slowly render over a 14.4k
modem at age 13, I was captivated by the web's potential. For the past
18 years, I have worked as a front end web developer at a variety of
different companies, and my passion and drive to innovate in this
exciting medium has never waned. The thrill of this ever-evolving field
continues to drive me.
I'm looking to work at a company or organization that is doing some real
tangible good in the world. In particular, I'd like to continue helping
fight climate change, but I'm also interested in addressing social
problems and other environmental issues.
