A Full Stack Engineer

Turning complex sports data into usable products — from pipelines to fan-facing apps.

What I Can Do for You

I design and build high-performance applications that turn raw data into products people actually use—from predictive sports platforms to intuitive, mobile-first fan experiences.

With roots in sports media and copywriting, I bring a sharp focus on the end user, blending technical depth with storytelling to deliver products that are robust, scalable, and genuinely engaging.

...They'll Tell You I Deliver More Than Just Code

Great sports applications require more than clean code—they demand clarity, usability, and a clear story. My years in media taught me how to connect with audiences, a skill I now embed into every product I design and every interface I ship.

You don’t just get an engineer. You get a partner who thinks like a founder about your business goals and obsesses like a writer over the clarity of the user experience. That’s how I ensure the final product is technically sound and resonates with the people using it.
