I build web apps and put them in front of real people. Two are live right now: one helps doctors learn from real clinical cases, the other keeps you off YouTube.

Selected work

Two products with real users, and a handful of smaller builds. Pins on the screenshots point at the parts I'm proudest of.

About

I like owning a thing end to end: the schema, the API, the UI, the deploy, and the bug report at midnight after launch.

Tectum taught me the most. Building it was the easy part. Keeping it working for people who open it every day is a different job, and I've enjoyed learning it.

When I'm not coding I'm usually solving DSA problems or watching a movie.
