I'm currently updating several e-commerce sites for clients in the outdoor industry (Shopify, bigCommerce, and Wix), have fixed a handful of legacy wordpress deployments (please don't ask me to do more of this), built a content-driven site for a local non-profit, and cobbled together a serverless computer vision PoC using AWS Rekognition + Lambdas.

Accepting new short-term contracts. I'm motivated by novel challenges of all sorts. If you need someone who can move mountains you didn't know existed, let's chat!

Joined Pit Viper as their E-Commerce Manager with the mission of modernizing their D2C shopping experience across all platforms while maintaining the brand's authentically irreverent nature. Succeeded.

There's no way to condense my time at the firm into a short snippet. I joined as a junior web developer in McKinsey Digital Labs, a client-facing product build vertical within the firm. I grew from a junior front end developer to a senior product engineer, capable of executing every phase of technical product development from ideation and design thinking workshops, to prototyping with an agile (lowercase a) approach to iteration, all the way through launch, training, handover, and documentation for future maintenance.

I served clients in healthcare, public utilities, mining, manufacturing, gaming, retail, and e-commerce, and led teams of 4-10 devs, designers, and analysts.

I opened a food truck. It was a smash hit, the people loved it. Got recognition from Zagat, Eater, and a bunch of local food blogs. I burned out. No sense in sugar coating that or making excuses. A cash-flow positive business can only take you so far if there's no way to remove yourself from the operating equation, and that was the case here. Lesson learned.

Do what you love, and you'll never work a day in your life (because nobody's hiring, and if they are, it's probably not paying a sustainable wage)

During my time in snow I managed multiple brick and mortar storefronts, grew several e-comm businesses, and worked for a video production company doing everything imaginable from sourcing a cut & sew merchandise line, running a 35 city film tour, rigging and gripping camera setups and soldering+programming drones in the days before DJI did everything for you.

I met some of the most genuine, passionate people to grace this earth, but ultimately had to get out and do something else.
