About Me

Hi! I'm a Software Developer based in Verona, Wisconsin, formerly a student majoring in Computer Science and Mathematics at St. Olaf College.

I like to code, play music, and fly airplanes.

I am currently not available for hire, but have lots of experience with backend and frontend development in a variety of languages and environments.

I am especially interested in API design, control theory and automation, and DevOps.

Interested in connecting? I'd love to get in touch. Check out my résumé or shoot me an email!

Blog Posts

I write things sometimes, apparently—here are some of the most recent of these things:

Activity

What am I up to? Check out my latest activity on GitHub:

Shucks, looks like you don't have JS enabled, or my code is bad. Oh well!

Projects

My favorite languages/frameworks to work in are Ruby (standalone and on Rails), Rust, C/C++, Node.js, and of course HTML5, CSS3, and JS/JSX.

I am also familiar with Docker, Kubernetes, React, React-Native, Go, Java, Python, Ansible, Chef, Linux, etc.

I'm working on a bunch of projects. Here are some of them:

All About Olaf

A (unofficial) mobile app for St. Olaf students.

Written in React Native, this app is used by over 600 daily active users, and provides valuable information to students. I work on some of the data fetching and business-logic bits as well as release and dependency management.

I also worked on separating the data fetching out into a separate service, deployed via Docker on DigitalOcean and capable of handling over 2000 requests per second.

netaddr2

A network address parsing and arithmetic library.

One of my first production-class Rust libraries, this project explores writing idiomatic and powerful Rust that can represent networks. This project allows users to parse CIDR notation, merge and iterate through networks, and rapidly check containment.
