My unique background in web design and publishing and writing has allowed me to work with clients across a broad spectrum of industries. I’ve held positions in both the publishing industry and interactive agencies, including Boston Magazine, Leap Agency, Genuine Interactive, and PJA Advertising, where I’ve served as a copywriter, embedded developer, and technical lead.
As an independent developer, I’ve had the opportunity to partner with local designers and digital agencies to provide end-to-end development for clients of all sizes, including established brands and individual entrepreneurs. Here you’ll find a catalog of my experience.
Current & Past Clients
Whether you’re a nascent small businesses or a well-known Fortune 500 company, my goal is always to listen, empathize, and translate your ideas into tailored web experiences that can make a tangible impact on your brand. I’ve helped startups find their digital footing and global enterprises transform ambitious visions into market realities.
Digital Agency Support
If you’re an interactive agency, I’ve got your back. I’ve served as a trusted local development resource for agencies all over New England and on the West Coast, providing end-to-end support from RFP response to launch. I can work behind the scenes to take the load off your team or directly interface with your clients and completely manage the technical scope. Let me help you win your next qualified lead.
Brand Experience
My brand experience is shaped by many, many hands-on roles. As a freelancer and as part of both agency and client-side teams, I’ve overseen massive deployments, architected complex integrations, and solved endless edge cases. Whatever I haven’t seen before, I have the know-how to figure out. Most importantly: my breadth of experience allows me to speak many different business “languages,” from the solution-driven parlance of retail and B2B, to the attention-to-detail lingua franca of academics and nonprofits, to the no-time-to-waste patois of startups.
