I'm a full stack developer who also designs — and always have been. That rare loop closes faster, costs less, and produces better work. Now with AI, it operates at a scale that simply wasn't possible before.
Most creative professionals pick a lane — they're either a designer who dabbles in code, or a developer who defers to design. I've never operated that way. From the beginning, I did both: conceiving the visual experience in Photoshop and Illustrator, then hand-coding that design into a functioning website from scratch. No handoff. No translation loss. No "that's not what I meant."
That discipline — owning the full creative and technical arc of a project — is what defines my work. I understand proportion, typography, and visual hierarchy the same way I understand state management, API architecture, and database design. These aren't separate skills. In my hands, they're a single, unified process.
Today, that process has been supercharged. AI agents and intelligent tooling have removed the friction from every phase of production. What once required a full team — concepting, designing, developing, iterating, shipping — I can now orchestrate with a precision and speed that simply didn't exist before. The hybrid practitioner has become something new: a one-person studio with enterprise-level output.
Websites built from the ground up — no templates, no shortcuts. Every line of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript crafted with intention for performance, accessibility, and longevity.
End-to-end application development using React, Next.js, PHP, and modern API architecture. I connect the front door to the back-end so everything works as one coherent system.
Deep customization of WordPress, Shopify, and Squarespace beyond what themes allow — custom plugins, theme development, API integrations, and bespoke functionality.
Intelligent workflows, AI-integrated pipelines, and custom tools that put machine intelligence to work for your business — built to run, scale, and sell.
The hybrid advantage: I bring a designer's eye to every technical decision. Interfaces that don't just function beautifully — they feel inevitable.
Not sure what you actually need? Let's map it. I help businesses make smart decisions about their digital infrastructure, tech stack, and AI readiness.
Most projects stall in the space between disciplines — between the designer's vision and the developer's interpretation. I eliminate that space entirely. One brain, both sides, start to finish.
Brief, discovery, information architecture, and creative direction — all informed by technical reality from day one.
UI, layout, typography, and brand expression. Stills, motion, video — no creative team dependency, no waiting on assets.
Front to back — custom code, platform integration, APIs, infrastructure. The design becomes the product, exactly as intended.
AI agents, intelligent workflows, and automated systems layer on top — turning a finished product into a scalable, self-improving machine.
For most practitioners, AI is an add-on. For me, it's the natural extension of a workflow that was already unusually unified. Because I fully understand both design and development — not one or the other — I can direct AI agents with the precision of an expert in both disciplines simultaneously.
The result isn't just faster work. It's a fundamentally different kind of output: richer, more considered, more adaptive — produced at a pace and scale no traditional team structure can match.
Let's build somethingTwenty-five years of tools, refined to what actually ships great products.
Entered the industry at the ground floor of the commercial web — conceiving visual designs in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, then hand-coding every pixel into functioning websites from scratch. No separation between creator and builder. That loop has defined every project since.
Grew into a seasoned full stack engineer while maintaining the designer's eye — mastering front-end craft, back-end architecture, CMS platforms, and e-commerce across agencies, publishing, and digital product work.
Became recognized as the rare practitioner who speaks fluent design and fluent code — handling still and video asset editing without the creative team, concepting and building in the same breath. The handoff gap others budget time for simply doesn't exist.
Currently Lead Developer and Development PM at a prominent marketing agency — building web components, authoring workflows, managing AWS and WPEngine infrastructure, and developing custom AI-powered internal tools. The same hybrid instinct, now operating at machine speed.
Design, development, and AI — in one engagement, with one point of contact, and none of the overhead. If you're ready to move faster and build smarter, let's talk.
