Frontend, Design Systems, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Accessibility, UI/UX, Mentor, Empathy
As a senior frontend developer, author, and speaker originally from the US but now calling Helsinki, Finland home, you can catch me sharing insights on platforms like Smashing Magazine, LogRocket and formerly CSS Tricks. Whether it's at conferences, meetups, or consulting with local companies, I love diving into topics like web accessibility (a11y) and design systems. Back in the US, I used to teach frontend engineering to career changers, and that passion for helping others continues today through my volunteer work with the Helsinki chapter of CodeBar.
I'm most passionate about great chocolate, beautiful tattoos and bridging design and development to create accessible and resilient design systems. Catch me at a local metal show, drinking hot chocolate at a cafe, gaming or sporting (basketball, squash, climbing).
