About Me

Who I Am

I'm a Michigan-born, Bay Area transplant who believes work should enable life. I may be a designer and developer by trade, but my passions extend far beyond the digital world.

After 15 years in California, I've found it to be the ever-evolving base for all my adventures. You'll find me running trails, tinkering with my bikes, carving down snowy slopes, or exploring the East Bay with my dog Roo and my wife Ashley.

Career Story

I started out developing on the web like many others from my generation, customizing MySpace and making the coolest forum signatures. What was just a fun hobby that could help friends every once in a while turned into a passion for building things on the web. Working with the right people as I grew my skills taught me that the best digital products not only solve real problems in the real world, but make people feel good while doing it. I've been lucky to work with some amazing people and on some amazing projects, and hope I've made a positive impact through design.
