My work

I currently work at This Dot Labs where I have had the opportunity to work with a lot of great people, teams, and companies on exciting, impactful projects.

You’ll notice a theme here. I love to work on challenging React and React Native applications. Nuking unnecessary state/effects and upgrading legacy React Native projects are a couple of my super powers.

These are some projects that I’ve worked on recently:

• Worked with the React Team to raise the bar on documentation and developer education using guides and interactive tutorials for the new react.dev website.
• Helping developers solve challenging production issues for their users with an advanced Session Replay UI. Our work was featured at React Conf 2024.
• Decentralized TikTok alternative Skylight built with React Native/Expo on the AT Protocol.

My projects

I’ve been obsessed with computers since the moment I first watched one come to life. I feed my addiction in my spare time by working on side projects and contributing to open-source.

Here’s what I’ve been up to:

• Step Club - A platform and community for 12-step meetings and other support groups.
• juvy - Simple dotfile/config backup and restore utility for MacOS. Claude Code helped me evolve this from a quick prototype into a polished, full-featured tool.

Future

We’re in a season of change, and there’s never been a better time to be a builder. Generative AI and LLMs are supercharging what developers can accomplish.

This is a profound technological shift, one we’re only beginning to understand. It’s stirring genuine emotion — from excitement to uncertainty and fear.

I don’t know what the future looks like but I’m excited about the possibilities. I hope it will lead to more time doing the things that I enjoy.

In the meantime, I’m experimenting, conversing, pondering, and sharing what I learn.
