About Me
As a front-end software engineer, I am passionate about creating dynamic, engaging, and well-organized applications that prioritize user experience and functionality. With a keen eye for detail and a strong grasp of design principles, I enjoy working on projects where thoughtful UI/UX decisions enhance usability. My recent work spans React, Next.js, and Flutter, where I focus on building efficient, modular components, leveraging hooks and contexts to optimize state management, and ensuring seamless, consistent experiences across light and dark modes.
I prioritize clean code architecture and enjoy refining interfaces to feel intuitive, responsive, and accessible. Additionally, I value the power of well-organized code, preferring utility functions and modular components for maintainability and scalability. Whether implementing complex features like autosave and image handling in drawing apps or designing reusable, accessible components like custom app bars and nav links, my goal is to make every interaction feel polished and purposeful.
Driven by a dedication to continuous improvement, I thrive in roles where I can refine user-facing features and keep codebases structured and forward-thinking.
Projects
I'm the web developer of Doing Utah Daily, a website showcasing exciting activities and events happening in Utah.
When I'm not coding, you can find me enjoying my vinyl collection, especially 90's alternative rock, or spending time with my family.
