I am a professional full stack software developer with a proven ability to work constructively and cohesively in dynamic teams of varying sizes. I have worked on numerous projects across the tech stack from frontend, to data, to backend and infrastructure. I'm passionate about exploring new technologies to make a positive impact on society, and particularly interested in developer tooling, media streaming, data engineering, and the application of AI and Large Language Models to improve software development.
For the first fifteen years of my career I performed as an orchestral musician (French Horn) with numerous orchestras across the United States, including several years frequently performing and touring with the San Francisco Symphony. You can read more about my musical background in this Otia article. When not staring at a computer screen I enjoy reading, movies, sports, running, home brewing, camping and traveling. I live in San Francisco, CA with my wife and our adopted senior pomeranian.
