Maker of all things
I'm a multidisciplinary creator working across web development, off-grid infrastructure, and community organizing. I build digital tools, host film productions, and help grow creative spaces in Northern Ontario.
Code & Craft – Things I Make on the Internet
With over 20 years of hands-on experience, I’ve designed, built, and launched everything from handcrafted portfolio sites to full-scale applications and content platforms. My work blends thoughtful design with reliable code — always tailored to the people using it. Whether it's modern frontend frameworks, custom CMS builds, or creative tech experiments, I bring both craft and care to the web.
