Artist-engineer dancing between ink and sparkles, crafting spells with intention.
about
Professional
I’m an artist-engineer crafting intentional systems with care and curiosity.
I’ve presented at several Elixir conferences, where I share my learnings from software engineering. I write to explore, speak to connect, and build to create space for others, and for myself.
Beyond the Code
I live on the road, letting connection with people guide me in where to go. Queerness and transition shape how I experience the world. I sketch dragons in ink, I sleep beside a sparkly bumblecorn, and I write about my travels, the projects I create, and the things I notice along the way.
