Work Hard. Run Harder.

I’ve been building on the web for over 20 years. Long enough to remember when “full stack” wasn’t a buzzword rather it was just what you did if you wanted to ship.

I started in the trenches with PHP and Drupal, building sites for political campaigns where stakes were high, timelines were short, and failure wasn’t an option. I cut my teeth as a front-end themer, obsessing over pixels, performance, and the psychology behind great interfaces. Eventually I realized the best builders take ownership and master the whole system. That’s when I went full stack.

As the web evolved, so did I.

I embraced the JAMstack early, dove headfirst into TypeScript, Angular, and React, and built with tools like Astro and Gatsby to create fast, resilient, modern experiences. I don’t chase trends, rather I match requirements to the best technology for long-term client success.

Over the years I’ve developed commerce solutions for brands large and small, partnering with agencies and internal teams alike. I understand how to ship clean code and how to ship outcomes that deliver value.

Open source has been part of my DNA from the beginning and two decades in, I still believe the best software is built in the open and that the best developers never stop evolving and adapting to the changing tools and industry demands.

But work is only part of the story.

“ Whether it’s code or miles, I’m wired for endurance — and I don’t show up unless I plan to finish strong.

When I’m not building for the web I’m building a life with my wife, Abigail, and our fluffy springerdoodle Sprint who has more energy than most startup founders.

I’m a runner. The kind who signs up for the long route on purpose. I’m drawn to the outdoors, to movement, to pushing limits. For over a decade I’ve captained dodgeball and kickball teams because I love competition, building relationships, and rallying teammates around a shared goal. Winning is great and I cherish every part of the journey!

I also believe in standing for something. I’ve proudly embraced the NAFO (North Atlantic Fellas Organization) and I’m a strong supporter of Ukraine. If that means running shirtless with “Ukraine” painted across my chest then so be it. Conviction should be visible.

Professionally, I build systems that perform. Personally, I live with intensity and purpose.

If you’re looking for someone who blends technical depth with competitive drive, collaborative spirit, someone who can architect, ship, lead, and still show up with personality then we’ll get along just fine.
