Real problems.
Thoughtful software.

A few of the areas I’ve worked in, and the engineering behind them.

Workforce software01

Software thatserves people.

Applications behind workforce development and unemployment insurance. I develop features, streamline data processing, and improve the experience for the people who depend on these systems.
