About

I came up through design and engineering. I work on accessibility, design systems, and the tools teams use to make their work more enjoyable. Most of that has been inside large enterprises where I reach a lot of people but produce much that can’t escape privacy policies.

So I build on my own time, too. It keeps me close to the tools and accountable to the craft of design, development, and well-considered systems.

I like to make complex things usable.
