Overview

Currently at Fenwick Logistics, where I work on developer tools. Moved 86% of developer experience traffic off a legacy monolith without a customer-facing incident. Shipped 27 launches on the developer experience team without a rollback. Before that: Deloitte and Manulife. Most at home with CLI design and Rust.
