I've always seen code as creative expression.

As a developer-designer hybrid, I've spent my career in data and engineering-heavy domains at Google, the Obama 2012 campaign, Pivotal, and the U.S. Space Force.

Creating the AI-native apps on this site helped me explore new types of user experiences, but also see how design and engineering are evolving and merging together. Because of that, I'm most excited about cloud-based DevEx — creating the next wave of engineering tools that will produce entirely new kinds of software and define the era.
