Full‑Stack Developer

I'm Andrew, a full-stack developer who really loves building things. I grew up obsessed with creating: lego structures, scripting Discord bots, and building systems in Minecraft with command blocks. That love for making things led me to software development, where I build with intention and provide for my family.

In college, I quickly got hooked on web development. I've always pushed myself to go a little further than expected. For example, I turned a simple Java console assignment into a full JavaFX app, and I ended up being asked to show it off in class. Since then, I've built projects like WritingPilot.ai (Chrome extension) and a big photography site for a client where I ended up running the whole project myself when my peers dropped out. It wasn't perfect. I made mistakes like not using TypeScript early enough, but those lessons have stuck with me and made me better.

I like creating web apps that feel as smooth and natural as mobile apps. Performance, polish, and clarity matter to me. I also care a lot about communication and being easy to work with, because I've seen firsthand how much that impacts a project.

On a personal note, I'm married and a first-time parent. That's the biggest reason I push as hard as I do. I want to provide for my family and grow into the kind of developer who brings real value to a team.
