full stack developer -- trying to be everything (part time) since 1988

Hello! I’m a developer based in the Bay Area. Over the years, I’ve worked on a wide range of projects—from front-end and mobile apps to full-stack debugging, refactoring, and math-heavy tasks like charting and real-time text or image processing. My experience is broad because I believe in doing what it takes to get things working smoothly.

Along the way, I’ve turned some of those “why doesn’t this exist already?” moments into open-source projects, hoping to make life a little easier for others, too. If you’re interested, feel free to check out my portfolio and GitHub below. I’m always open to new challenges and collaborations!

Let's work together!

Zebra

Zebra is a demo that blends WebGL shaders with WebCam Tuner features, all running right in your browser. At the moment, it’s using a binarization filter—an adaptation of one of Leptonica’s classic algorithms—reworked for fast, real-time processing on your device. As time allows, I’ll keep adding more image processing filters useful for image segmentation or text recognition.
