As someone who has held every role in startups, I know the value of communication. As a full stack developer, I bridged the gap between stakeholders and customers, doing my best to understand both priorities. As a tech lead and Director, I had to understand what drove sales as well as innovation. In the past, I worked one-on-one with clients to depict complex anatomy and medical technology via illustration and animation. I've discovered that my creativity and communication skills are a natural fit for building elegant software. I work with customers to determine the best way to translate their needs into features with a minimum of time and overhead. Currently, I'm looking for my next challenge. My goal for this is the same as it has been for previous endeavors: helping people understand the big picture without sacrificing key details.
