Blending design, code, and storytelling to build human-centred digital products.

Yeah, I love performance… but I’m also the type who pauses mid-benchmark to pet my dogs or admire nice typography. Sure, I run dual OLEDs, a beast desktop, and two 3D printers like I’m prepping for a cyberpunk craft fair, but I’m also grounded, thoughtful, and genuinely curious about how tech can make life feel better, not just run faster.

I’m pursuing web development because creating things (websites, brands, physical prints, photos) gives me peace. I like solving problems, polishing details, and learning new tools, but I value vibes and connection just as much as clean code. I’ll optimize a dev workflow one minute and recommend a good standing desk or camera lens the next.

Outside of the digital grind, I’m hanging with my two dogs Cooper and Togo and my partner Kirsten, messing with photography, re-organizing my workspace for the 27th time, or wandering around Edmonton pretending every coffee shop is a co-working space. I laugh at my own nerd jokes, and I’m learning balance: slower mornings, better posture, more mindful focus, less “panic-code until it’s perfect.”

I’m here to build cool things, grow steadily, and enjoy the journey. Soft on the edges, strong in the core… like a well-designed UI or a nicely weighted keyboard switch.
