Me

I am a software developer at Amazon with over five years of experience building robust maintainable software at scale. Our UI framework, library, and build tools allow hundreds of teams to build consistent experiences across Amazon's federated architecture while allowing for site wide experimentation. I graduated from the University of Utah's computer science program, where I also worked as a teaching assitant. I love building developer tooling, creating concise ways for people to complete their work.

Projects

Mini Computer |

Programming languages and compilers built on top of virtual hardware, all built from scratch with the aim of learning about foundational concepts of computing.

plain.zsh |

A simple zsh theme using simple ASCII characters that I use daily. It gives me just enough information about git repositories, running jobs, and command execution time.
