"If you're in a good profession, it's hard to get bored, because you're never finished — there will always be work you haven't yet done."

I moved into tech during grad school when I realized that turning on the projector was the most tech-savvy thing my teaching involved. Since then, I have taught digital media, earned my chops at a small software company, and worked at larger agencies before cofounding Novel. In working for businesses large and small, I have experience in marketing, copywriting, team and project management, and software testing. I consider myself a strong communicator with a focus on building relationships, setting realistic expectations, and delivering quality work. I’m excited to work on Daily Grains because it combines my digital experience with some of my analog interests: whole-grain sourdough baking, backyard wheat growing, and recipe development.

"I’m as proud of what we don’t do as I am of what we do."

I consider myself a well-balanced solution architect and developer who can bridge the gap between the creative and technical disciplines of web & mobile application development, with a focus on efficiency and reusability in everything I do. My background in full-stack web development, mobile applications, cloud computing and connected devices serves as a solid base for my approach to digital solutions. This contributes to a more wholistic business systems application architecture that, in turn, leads to more efficient and effective digital products.
