Welcome
I’m glad you’re here. Come on in and feel free to look around.
Who I Am
I'm a caregiver at heart. That's true at home and it's true at work. I want the people around me to feel safe being honest — about what they're struggling with, what they need, how they're actually doing. If someone's working overtime, I want to know. If their partner just broke up with them and they need a few hours, I want to know that too. I show up as myself every day, and I expect the people I work with to feel like they can do the same.
What I Do
I make the gears turn. That means setting up reusable code from the start, planning sprints with a clear path from kickoff to delivery, and staying one step ahead of bottlenecks before they become blockers. My job is to keep the team moving — whatever that takes. I do a lot of that through code reviews: teaching in the moment builds the kind of shared understanding that pays off when velocity really counts, late in the project and into the next one. I get projects done.
Pure CSS
As a creative learning exercise, I wanted to see how far I could push pure CSS without relying on image assets. Using a flat graphic design of a classroom as a reference point, I leveraged complex linear and radial gradients along with CSS transforms. The final result is a pure-code rendering that includes a functional clock synchronized to local time and an interactive, mouse-tracking avatar.
Space Finder
Developed as a solution for Harvard Library, this application allows students to seamlessly find and book study spaces across campuses. Inspired by an existing application at Cambridge University, we leveraged React and CSS animations to build a highly responsive, modern, map-integrated user interface that streamlined the booking experience while respecting the university's technical ecosystem.
Data Visualizations
Built for a high-profile health platform (PHCPT), this project explored alternative methods for rendering complex dashboard metrics. Instead of relying heavily on massive charting libraries like D3, I built a lightweight React application that processes data values directly into dynamic inline styles (handling max-width, positioning, and background styling via pure CSS). D3 was used selectively for complex rendering like pie charts, optimizing loading performance and design flexibility.
