About Me

I am a freelance developer, digital assets manager & former tennis teaching proffesional from Minneapolis, MN. I started doing freelance development in 2016 building some simple WordPress sites for friends & family. I am constantly learning through online tutorials, podcasts, nerding out and reading documentation, watching twitch streams and many other ways. I have expanded my tech knowledge and have created #JAMstack marketing sites & React.js web applications for numerous small businesses.

Things I like to do

  • Play tennis & pickleball
  • I played college tennis at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, MN. I was a teaching professional for 9 years and continue to play in leagues with my dad and my wife (and hopefully my daughter someday soon!). Pickleball (for those of you that don't know) is another racquet sport played on a small court, with a wiffle ball & a paddle, tons of fun!

  • Go hiking, camping & showshoeing
  • My wife Natasha and I love to go camping & exploring beautiful hiking trails all around the country. Some of my favorite spots are Lutsen on the north shore of Minnesota, Mount Rainier in Seattle (and really any trail in Washington) & Sedona, AZ. We have a long bucket list of places we hope to visit!

  • Play guitar, piano & anything related to music
  • I actually majored in music business and dreamed of being in the music industry before I fell in love with development. Although I don't get to as much as I'd like these days, I love to whip out my acoustic guitar and have some fun.

  • Drink beer
  • I am a self-declared craft beer afficianado. My favorites are dark beers like porters & stouts but am fond of IPAs, sour beers and will try anything. Follow me on Untappd to check out beers I've rated.
