Hello World!

About me

I’m a web developer and working artist based in Knoxville, TN, currently in the final stretch of my B.S. in Software Engineering. My background in painting and design heavily influences how I build for the web—I think in composition, hierarchy, and mood just as much as functionality.

Having worked in higher education and with independent creatives, I understand both structured institutions and solo entrepreneurs. I love building sites that feel purposeful, beautiful, and human.
