I like to tinker with code and explore new ideas, usually just for fun. By day, I’m a software engineer who enjoys building practical systems, and outside of work I value keeping things light, creative, and balanced. I also spend a lot of time with my small family and look forward to making the most of the upcoming summer!
Here is a project I've kept alive over time: a full-stack simulation of Conway's Game of Life. It’s simple, nerdy, and kind of hypnotic.
My most recent project is a mobile pre-navigation safety app that aggregates real-time weather and road condition data into a simple route verdict (Clear / Caution / Hazard). It helps users quickly assess travel risk before starting navigation in their preferred maps app. It’s still in early stages, but I recently completed an MVP and shared it with my local community to gauge interest.
At work, I recently finished phase one of a large microservices orchestration layer to integrate external partner Workday data into our internal systems. I leveraged AI development tools like Claude Code, along with my years of experience in client integrations, to design and deliver a significant piece of functionality that enables more on-demand data synchronization and supports onboarding new clients.
