Experience

Senior Software Developer NearForm (Oct 2018 - Present)

At NearForm I’ve had the privilege to work across open and inner source projects to help push the company’s ability to deliver industry leading React and Node.js solutions.

For 2.5 years I worked at TELUS, scaling their existing commerce flows to increase their ecommerce offering. Within my role, I worked closely with the UX designers to develop complex experiences which could scale across products and teams.

Currently I’m developing complex editing features for a global consultancy firm as part of one of their well established cloud products.
