About Me

I’m a passionate front-end developer based in Spokane, WA, dedicated to building performant websites and web applications. With a solid foundation in HTML5, CSS3, PHP, WordPress and JavaScript—and hands-on experience in React and Redux—I bring designs to life with pixel-perfect accuracy and smooth, intuitive interactions. Whether you need a simple landing page or a complex single-page application, I focus on writing clean, maintainable code that scales.
