I work across creative, technology and production teams to help them speak the same language.
In a nutshell, i’m a creative technologist.
I specialize in developing websites and digital services
I care deeply about user experience and using the web to craft compelling narratives.
Development
I’ve spent countless hours behind an IDE developing websites…
(10,000 but who’s counting?)
Design
and put in an insane amount of reps designing UIs in Figma.
(thank you coffee!)
But what i do well is leverage my understanding of market trends and user experience to translate business goals into digital products.
