Creative, passionate, not-your-typical full stack dev. Proven js/ts wiz who has made apps that stretch the limits of the browser from prototype to production for multiple early-stage YC startups across biotech and fintech. Secretly dreams of being able to work on something cool with his true passion, Lisp (CL experienced, clojure dabbler), but would love to chat about anything else. Cursor can pull Emacs out of my cold dead hands, but Claude Code works alright!

Technologies: Typescript, React, Angular, Svelte; can do Figma and not afraid to be designer-coder in a small team that benefit from that; Mongo/sqlite/postgres, all the ORMs; tons of experience with all forms of WASM porting, and comfortable in a C/Rust/Zig codebase with this context; grew up learning programming in Java; low-key Supercollider/sclang expert; SBCL Common Lisp, Clojure, Guile and Racket scheme. Have worked at points heavily in Scala/Kotlin/Java, Python, and Nodejs for backend development.

Generalist self-taught programmer, passionate about lisp, but happy being a js guy for the paycheck :). Have spent the past 1.5 years as a remote, near-solo frontend developer at a small startup, where I work on complex biotech/lab interfaces in the browser. Very comfortable working with webassembly (I can make my way around c/cpp), canvas/webgl centered things (Three.js, Pixi.js, Konva.js), and generally fitting square pegs into circular holes with the entire javascript/css/html ecosystem.
