I build products.

I’ve always had a fascination for building products that are beautifully designed and easy to interact with. Whether it’s a website, a mobile app or just a form to collect information, the same level of detail is necessary for it all. Recently, I realized I enjoy teaching on these subjects as well.

This site chronicles my journey learning to create the best products possible. All the while teaching others to do the same across business, finance and culture with my faith included along the way.

A little more about me

I Create Digital Experiences

I got my start as a website designer when I was in college, either writing code from scratch or building beautiful websites for local clients. A decade and a half later, after a 10-year stint rising the corporate ladder, I found myself reinvigorated to begin building websites again. I didn’t realize how much I enjoyed it until new challenges were thrown my way.

Today, the websites I’ve built and maintained reach over a million people per year.
