I make sure devs have a great experience with Mux. I think the web is pretty neat!

I'm a Senior Developer Experience Engineer at Mux, doing anything I can do to design and develop a better experience for devs. A delightful marketing site, a better dashboard, useful docs, handy components, and some content on the side.

Fun fact about me, I actually like writing CSS. Weird, huh?

I went to school for Computer Engineering, thinking I'd end up writing assembly or something for some low-level hardware. After that scared the bejeebies out of me, I ran away as fast as I could, as far as I could, to the web, where I found a home.

When my dad asked me about why I ended up in web development, I told him that it's a lot like the deck that he built in his back yard. It's building a space that serves a practical use. But it's also more than that. It's also thinking about how the user will move through that space, from beginning to destination. Also how that space will fulfill its purpose without getting in the way. How the user will enjoy that space. The details that will delight them. How that space will work for all the different kinds of people who will interact with it.

Lately, I've been realizing that the design skills I learned making static web pages work across all of developer experience. From a marketing site, to a dashboard, to docs, to components, to some content… It's all just ways to lower the bar for users trying to get stuff done. That's the kind of stuff I get to design and develop as a Senior Developer Experience Engineer at Mux.
