about me

skills

Software Developer

Ever since I started coding, I began looking at real-world problems through the lens of a programmer. From database-backed web apps to interactive browser games, my wide-ranging knowledge of computer science has allowed me to develop many programmatic solutions for my clients.

Photographer

For over half a decade, the photos I take as a professional event and portrait photographer are the source of great pride. I strive to deliver breathtaking results to my clients that truly capture an event, and work to deliver an unparalleled experience from planning to post-processing.

Web Designer

I work closely with local businesses in the planning, design, and long-term management of their websites. Using modern tools and web methodologies, I am proud to serve as the online ambassador for multiple businesses who benefit from an increased web presence.
