I build things. I'm a problem solver. I investigate the spaces between technology and play. I build single-page web applications that exemplify modern design principles and coding best practices. I build music applications that bridge the gap between technology and creativity. I build applications using Ruby, Rails, JavaScript, React.js, jQuery, SQL, HTML5, & CSS3.

Check out some of my projects:

Shouldreads

A single-page application inspired by Goodreads, written in Ruby & Javascript, using Rails and React.

NH-101

A subtractive synthesizer, in the style of analog classics. React.js, CSS3, HTML5.

Muck

A light-weight server framework based on Rails.

Play | Compose | Teach

I've been writing, performing, and teaching music since 2008, focusing on non-linear forms, recombinative analog equipment and anti-hierarchic goals.

I teach tape and synthesis techniques for enthusiasts and beginners alike, hoping to help the community appreciate the outdated and simplistic in order to build towards larger, loftier aims.
