About me
I grew up in Centralia, Illinois, a small town in corn country. I graduated from Stanford with a degree in design and urban history.
After college, I lived abroad in Malaysia on a Fulbright and made a short film (staging a durian-eating contest in the process).
I lived in New York City for several years—and have the Strand tote bag to prove it.
Beginning in 2012, I taught myself to code.
I began my software development career at a non-profit and then worked on the growth team at Zendesk for over 8 years. Currently, I’m learning how to make beautiful interactive maps with rich datasets.
I live in San Francisco.
