About Me

I'm a Senior Frontend Engineer with a unique journey in tech. Starting in software sales at companies like Auth0 (acquired by Okta) and SAP Roambi (acquired by SAP), I developed a deep fascination with the technical side of products. This led me to transition into software engineering, where I've spent the last 7 years building and optimizing web applications.

At Sangoma, I've led the development of mission-critical applications, focusing on performance optimization and user experience. My background in both business and engineering allows me to bridge the gap between technical solutions and business needs.

I'm passionate about creating efficient, user-friendly applications and sharing knowledge with fellow developers. When I'm not coding, I'm a dad, enjoying the outdoors, playing sports, or hanging with friends.

Technical Excellence

Frontend engineer specializing in React, TypeScript, and performance optimization with 6+ years of hands-on development experience.

Leadership & Collaboration

Business Impact

Unique perspective combining software engineering skills with 7 years of business experience, delivering solutions that drive real business value.

Continuous Learning
