I left a 10+ year career in creative production after falling into a path as a software engineer, one that took off so quickly I didn't have time to look back. I love to apply creativity to my engineering approach, polished off with my pursuit of building an inventory of best practices.

Coming from artistic communities, I was immediately enthralled by the idea of open source and its effect on technology advancement and accessibility. I have been able to contribute to large communities like Eslint, Homebrew, VS Code, Jest, Cypress, and Octokit, as well as developing and maintaining my own open source projects.

I work full time as a father to my two children, and also as a professional software engineer, but any extra time I'm able to scrap together is always poured into continuing to push my passion for open source forward.
