About Me
Driven, Detail-Oriented, Dedicated
I build AI-assisted software and automated workflows, drawing on more than 20 years of web development experience. After two years as a WordPress developer at Clark Computer Services, I now work independently. I build apps in TypeScript and React Native with Claude Code, design constrained AI system prompts, and automate workflows with N8N.
I earned my B.S. in Digital Media and Web Technology (summa cum laude, 2021) during the pandemic, while doing part-time web development work and holding a second part-time job.
I am open to roles in AI automation and software development, especially work that involves building practical tools and helping non-technical teams use them. I believe in compassion, diversity, and empowering others to achieve their goals.

Projects
Marine Electronics Tracker is a custom mobile app I built for a Mariners Club’s marine electronics department, replacing paper logs and scattered spreadsheets with one searchable record of every piece of equipment on every boat in the fleet. Technicians log installs, repairs, and maintenance right from a phone on the dock; staff can instantly pull up a boat’s full service history by name, equipment type, or brand. It runs entirely offline on a local database — fast, reliable, and built around how a working marine shop actually operates.
It was designed and built using AI-assisted development with Claude Code using React Native, Expo, and TypeScript. I defined the requirements, planned the features in phases, and guided and tested each piece until it was ready for daily use. Still in early release, the client uses it on the job today.
