I am a Software Engineer who enjoys wearing a lot of hats and building meaningful products that help people.From my startup experiences, I've learned to do whatever needs to be done to deliver great user experiences. I find it incredibly gratifying to work through and understand the details of a product's lifecycle; from research, planning and design to implementation, launch and iteration.On the product side, I focus on understanding and empathizing with the users and their problems in order to plan out and design a pragmatic and delightful experience. From there, collecting and analyzing different data points will reveal the best next steps to grow the product. Some of my product skills include user research, product analysis, planning and management, prototyping and wireframing, content curation, information architecture and UX design.As an engineer, I enjoy understanding the tools of the trade and employing/creating the ideal tool for the job at hand. I work with Ruby on Rails and Javascript and all the frameworks in the entire world built with Javascript (React, Angular, Node, cutting it short here or this becomes a wiki page of Javascript), but had my swings with Go and Python and worked with multiple SQL and noSQL databases.Beyond all this, usually you can find me trying to learn something new (guitar at the moment), walking my dog around San Francisco, and speculating with strangers about life.If you want to connect and talk about opportunities and projects, share life stories, or pet my dog, feel free to reach out.
