Ambition, cunning, resourceful, and determined.
Those four words describe how I work. I solve real problems by building systems that are clear, durable, and practical. I’m drawn to structure, usability, and long-term thinking, and I enjoy work that requires care, follow-through, and thoughtful decision-making.
Outside of client work, I create upright bass and visual content for a collective audience of more than forty thousand followers. I publish consistently and handle my own sound engineering, video capture, and editing. I’m also deeply involved in animal rescue and foster work, and have helped rehome multiple dogs. Both creative work and rescue have shaped how I show up professionally: patient, hands-on, and committed to doing things well.
