Design-Driven Full-Stack Dev
I build visually stunning, accessible, and performant websites that bring ideas to life. Currently helping lead front-end at a startup while exploring the intersection of code and design.
About Me
I'm a beginner full-stack developer figuring things out as I go. I currently lead front-end at Arrows Up, a small startup based in the St. Louis area. Most of my work involves Svelte, Tailwind, and TypeScript, and I'm learning how to pair clean code with thoughtful design.
While I don't consider myself a designer (yet...), I do care a lot about how things look and feel. This site is part of the learning process
It's not perfect, but it's honest.

I led the redevelopment of the Arrows Up website with a focus on speed, scalability, and clean structure. Built with Svelte 5 and Tailwind, the project is evolving toward a Sanity CMS integration to support long-term content flexibility and editor workflows.

Half-Built Thoughts
Sometimes I need space to think through something. It could be a design decision, technical pattern, or just something that's been stuck in my head for a while.
I'm slowly building a collection of notes and reflections. Some are about frontend development, others lean into design. A few wander into psychology, systems thinking, or even philosophy. I've been especially drawn to Stoicism lately as a framework for approaching work and life with steadiness and clarity.
If you're curious about how I think, or into the same kinds of things, feel free to explore.
