Portfolio
I am deeply passionate about building and improving the digital healthcare space.
During the day, I'm a Senior Backend Engineer @ Transcarent that is building and maintaining robust and scalable backend services that empower individuals to stay healthy by enabling members to get affordable, quality care on their own terms all while delivering a better experience, higher quality care, and a lower cost.
I was previously at Rally Health for 4 years having grown from a Full Stack Software Engineer helping to deliver a fresh MVP Digital Coaching platform out the door, then very quickly progressing into a Senior Software Engineer & Tech Lead that led backend teams and architected technical solutions for the growing platform, and finally becoming a Software Engineering Manager passionate about building out high-performing, full-stack engineering teams and facilitating their career growth opportunities while still continuing to serve as a technical liaison for product roadmap planning, business stakeholder syncs, and day-to-day team sprint development.
Outside of my day job, here are some of the things I've dabbled in:
