I hand-build fast, accessible, standards-first websites for private-practice clinicians: static architecture, structured data, and the technical SEO that gets them ranked.
Design and engineer hand-coded static sites, no page builders. Semantic HTML, JSON-LD structured data (LocalBusiness / MedicalBusiness), Core Web Vitals optimization, and Git-based CI/CD deploys to edge CDNs. Sub-second loads, perfect Lighthouse, WCAG-accessible.
Migrated a legacy WordPress site to a fast static architecture that eliminated plugin bloat and server overhead. Built a client-side blog with a JS post scheduler, an EmailJS/Formspree fallback contact chain, self-hosted fonts, comprehensive schema, and Playwright visual-regression tests.
My engineering lab. Self-hosted infrastructure on a Mac Mini home server, containerized services, and applied-AI pipelines, plus full-stack app work (Next.js + Supabase) and DIY hardware. Where I prototype and battle-test tooling before it touches client production.
Graduate work in the cognition of quantitative reasoning, applied now to data modeling and analytics instrumentation. It underpins how I structure logic, define JSON-LD schema relationships, and treat event tracking, conversion funnels, and Core Web Vitals as measurable systems rather than guesswork. Formalizing abstract structure is exactly what clean semantic markup and well-typed data demand.
Formal training in attention, perception, and decision-making: the same cognitive-load and visual-hierarchy principles that decide whether a visitor trusts a page or bounces. I translate that into concrete engineering choices, from above-the-fold priority and focus order for accessibility (WCAG) to predictable interaction states and CTA placement driven by how the brain parses a page, not by guesswork.
Project-based full-stack training across JavaScript, REST APIs, relational data, Git version control, and modern CI/CD deployment. It formalized the engineering fundamentals under a decade of self-directed work: component architecture, state management, and shipping from local dev through staging to production. Thinkful ranked the top U.S. coding bootcamp in Forbes Advisor's 2023 list.
State-licensed K-6 educator with a secondary mathematics endorsement. Years of teaching built the discipline of turning dense technical work into plain language: documenting architecture decisions, writing maintainable and well-commented code, and walking non-technical clients through tradeoffs so they can make informed calls. It is the skill that turns a competent engineer into one people actually want to work with.
