As of March 27th, 2023, I'm working at Bandcamp, helping artists make a living creating their music.
Previously, I worked at Braintree Payments (a PayPal company) as a Software Engineer for 8 years. My core responsibility for most of that time was maintaining the Braintree web SDK, but I work on a lot of other things too! I've built tools for my team, migrated the JavaScript packages to Typescript, and managed Github issues/PRs for repos in a variety of different programming languages, and even spent a stint as a manager.
I've dabbled in a bunch of frontend frameworks. My favorite system right now is the Jamstack using Vue.js/Nuxt.js and Tailwind CSS.
In my free time, I maintain a bunch of open source projects on my Github account.
I've got 2 amazing kids! I'm trying hard to respect their privacy online, so I won't say more about it on here, but it felt wrong not to mention it!
I spend waaaaaay too much time thinking about and playing Magic the Gathering.
I recently helped redesign the website for Commander Spellbook, a search engine for game winning card interactions for the Commander format. Despite maintaining the web infrastructure for this site, I'm more of a casual scrub than a competitive combo player.
I maintain a browser extension to amplify the Magic search engine Scryfall (source code on Github, Chrome Version, Firefox Version). In addition, I help maintain Scryfall's Tagger app.
Some of my favorite decks right now are:
Want to play a game? I love playing a game of casual Commander over Spelltable.
