About

I build web products that stay useful after launch.

Most of my experience comes from work that continues after launch: maintaining live sites, improving legacy systems, building data flows, and making results visible through analytics and reporting. That has shaped how I write software — clear about its constraints, covered by useful tests, and designed to be maintained.

I'm a full-stack developer working with TypeScript and Next.js from Slidell, Louisiana, in the Greater New Orleans area.

How I work

Make change safe with tests

Experience: Tymeline Inc.

At Tymeline, I wrote unit and integration tests with Jest, React Testing Library, and Playwright. The work covered component behavior and end-to-end flows, making changes easier to verify.

Design for data integrity

Experience: MyCritters

At MyCritters, I managed role-based GraphQL permissions and PostgreSQL triggers. Keeping access rules and consistency close to the data model made those constraints explicit.

At Pelican, my work includes Google Tag Manager, Power BI reporting, and analytics that help stakeholders review revenue, advertising spend, and client trends alongside the sites themselves.

What I’m looking for

I'm looking for a product team that ships regularly, reviews code carefully, and gives developers room to own features from the interface through the data and measurement. TypeScript and Next.js are my strongest tools, but clear engineering practices and useful products matter more than a particular stack.

Off the clock, I often turn small everyday annoyances into tiny tools — part curiosity, part preference for solving a tedious problem once.
