Lead Software Engineer
I build understandable systems for complex product behavior.
I lead frontend architecture for complex customer-facing React and TypeScript products, carrying product decisions across APIs, testing, accessibility, security, and production delivery.
Make the product decision clear, keep system boundaries explicit, and leave evidence that the result works.
Across my State Farm tenure, I've architected and delivered customer-facing life-insurance workflows that connect frontend behavior, APIs, testing, security, and production delivery.
Additional work includes runtime-image optimization, vulnerability remediation, deployment visibility, and mentoring engineers.
Selected product work where the problem, architecture, tradeoffs, and verification are available for inspection.
An independently built household cash-flow product that turns income, bills, savings, and debt into a clear next-paycheck plan. Its accessible React workflows connect to an authenticated Spring Boot API, versioned PostgreSQL data, and cross-layer verification.
Start with the decision a person needs to make, then turn ambiguous requirements into explicit behavior and testable outcomes.
Keep state, domain rules, API contracts, and data ownership clear across the stack.
Combine tests, accessibility, security, documentation, reviews, and mentoring so the team can deliver reliably.
My background spans geospatial data quality for Google Maps, a decade in data and analytics at Microsoft, open-source software engineering at WattTime, and customer-facing product engineering at State Farm. That progression shapes how I connect technical decisions to user behavior, operational context, and measurable outcomes.
Today I lead frontend architecture and full-stack delivery for complex workflows, mentor engineers, and improve the systems and practices that make change safer.
