About Me

I'm a passionate developer who loves creating digital solutions that make a difference.

My Story

I'm a freelance Rails developer who specializes in building robust web applications for nonprofits and small businesses. My approach combines modern development practices with practical solutions that fit real-world budgets and timelines.

What sets my work apart is the emphasis on long-term maintainability. Every project includes comprehensive testing suites, security scanning with Brakeman, automated deployment workflows, and clear documentation. I believe in delivering code that your team can confidently maintain and extend.

Currently working with a nonprofit organization on their web platform, while taking on select freelance projects. I'm passionate about using technology to make a positive impact in the world.
