hire me

Pardon the dust! While I’m not actively seeking a new role, I’m always open to discussing the perfect opportunity. If my résumé looks like a good fit for your engineering leadership position, let’s chat.

About Me

I recently wrapped up my time at Glitch in April and have been enjoying a
well-deserved break.

What I’m Looking For

• A culture that prioritizes mentorship and personal growth
• A new challenge that pushes me beyond my current experience
• A well-defined role, either as a leader or an individual contributor, with
  clear expectations and responsibilities for success

Engineering Leadership

I thrive in roles that allow me to work at a higher level, managing managers or setting strategic direction. However, I’m equally adept at leading individual contributors and engineers of all skill levels, having successfully managed teams comprised of interns and principal engineers simultaneously. My leadership experience spans the entire technology stack, from infrastructure orchestration to improving front-end performance and accessibility.

Before my departure from Fastly, I was pursuing a director-level position, which aligns with my career aspirations within a large organization.

Software Engineering

As an individual contributor, my expertise lies in front-end development, with over a decade of experience working with JavaScript, TypeScript, PHP, and other related technologies. I’m known for my ability to move quickly and my passion for prototyping new ideas and solutions.
