Passionate about craft & code

Hi, I'm Alex — a developer and designer who believes that great software is both technically excellent and genuinely delightful to use.

I started coding at 16, fell in love with design in college, and have spent the last 7 years combining the two to build products people actually enjoy. I care deeply about performance, accessibility, and the small details that make a big difference.

When I'm not building, you'll find me hiking, reading, or obsessing over good typography.

  • Clean, semantic, accessible code
  • Pixel-perfect UI implementation
  • Performance-first architecture
  • Collaborative, async-friendly workflow
