Recent Projects
Surfline
Since April 2021, I've been a Staff Software Engineer at Surfline, where I work across our web applications stack. My primary focus is on the UI layer, using technologies like TypeScript, React, and Next.js. I also contribute to building and maintaining our APIs and databases, and we frequently work with AWS.
VideoAmp Platform
I joined VideoAmp in 2018 and started working on the Design Ops team. We created the PreAmp Design System and I now work on the Measurement application, which allows users to optimize their ads and monitor past and active investment initiatives.
REI Classes/Events and Adventures Team
During my time at REI, I led a team of frontend software engineers supporting both the Classes, Events, and Adventures applications. We used Agile methodology and a continuous integrated environment with Docker, Java, Jenkins, and more. I also upgraded our linting standards with Vue.js and delivered pages and components for the REI website using the Cedar Design System.
