Former agency lead and ongoing mentor, he also brings solutions-architect and hiring-consultant experience, rooted in a self-taught developer journey that later formalized with computer science studies. An educator at heart (previously a K–5 music teacher), he brings patience and a practiced eye for UX detail to complex product problems.
