I'm a software engineer experienced with web startups. I write readable, well-documented and well-tested code while iterating quickly. I'm able to contribute holistically to build a great product—writing specs, doing design, and evaluating metrics. I've also built a few open source projects which I currently maintain. I'm looking to work with driven teams to build impactful products.
