ABOUT

Mobile Developer, Outdoor Adventurer, Car Enthusiast

I am a Cleveland based mobile first developer with a passion for clean design. I work on everything from web to mobile and I always try to keep up with the latest new tech. I love to play around with home automation and anything I can develop to make my life easier. When I'm not sitting in front of my computer I'm out on the water sailing, working on my car, or in the woods backpacking.
