Hello!

You're probably here because I am applying for a job!

I am currently pursuing my master's in Advanced Energy Systems at Colorado School of Mines, where I am specializing in power systems engineering.

I spent the last eight years as a software engineer, mostly doing frontend work, most recently at Workday. I ❤️ making stuff, and I love how quickly you can turn ideas into reality with modern tools. My career experiences in the enterprise software industry have taught me how to work collaboratively across large organizations to build creative, sustainable solutions. Now I am applying my skills to fighting climate change via increased electrification and integrating distributed energy resources.

You can find some recent school projects—and a bunch of dusty old stuff—on the projects page. The old stuff is a mix of old client work and (unpolished) personal projects.


Here are some things you might want to know about me.
