I'm a full-stack developer in Atlanta, GA working on Makeswift. I am passionate about making creative tools that are sexy and fast.
When I'm not working, I like to find meaning in my faith, mental clarity in writing, and self expression in illustration.
I am in love with my wife Izzy and have some cool cats named Thomas, Daisy, and Bear !
