About Me

I'm a licensed professional engineer and full-stack software developer. I use my engineering expertise to create software that advances sustainable practices in the built environment and build the tools I wish I had when working solely as a design professional.

I have experience / interest in the following:

  • high performance Python and software optimization
  • domain-driven design
  • data visualization and geospatial analysis
  • research in sustainable design and embodied carbon accounting
  • open source engineering software (FEA, interoperability, etc.)
  • building digital tools to complement engineering expertise
  • equity in Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC)

I currently work on a contract basis. Please feel free to reach out with any project ideas or opportunities for collaboration.

DATA VISUALIZATION

Sustainable Design in U.S. Communities

Data exploration and visualization of LEED (green building) rated projects in the U.S. since the formation of the U.S. Green Building Council. Projects are cross referenced against the U.S. Census Bureau's Disadvantaged Census Tract Data to explore the prevalence of sustainable design in disadvantaged communities (Staff pick from Observable team)
