Writing web stuff since 1998. Woodsman since 2022. I write code, manage woodland and care about both.

Seasoned software engineer with battle scars from both individual contributor (IC) and engineering leadership (EM) trenches — now joyfully “back on the tools” after a detour into woodland management, arboriculture, and teaching. Built and scaled platforms from scratch, in high- growth startups using Python, Django, JavaScript, Elixir, CI/CD, and cloud platforms. Looking for a remote role where the tech matters and the outcome does some good in the world. Loves clean code, solving hard problems, and avoiding unnecessary meetings. Recovering perfectionist with a soft spot for elegant systems.
