<about>
I am a Chicago based, digital marketing professional with over 27 years of progressive experience applying interactive and technology driven strategies to improve business performance.
Welcome! I'm glad you've stopped by. Though I'm a developer at heart, I do more than write code; I craft solutions tailored to my project needs. I understand that each project has its unique set of challenges, and I approach every one with adaptability and an eye for detail.
Beyond the technical skills, I bring a collaborative spirit and a commitment to elevating the work of those around me. I'm not just focused on getting the job done—I'm dedicated to doing it with precision, creativity, and a passion for excellence that reflects in every deliverable. My goal is to make visions come to life in a way that is seamless, impactful, and unique.
You can get a high-level overview of some of my facets below. Or, you can check out my backstory and peel back the layers.
Leader & S.M.E.
Over the last 14 years I've worked my way through the ranks to the top of the Development and Digital Production teams as the VP, Director of Interactive Technology at AbelsonTaylor Group.
While it took a lot of work, I try to ensure that I'm staying current on tech and trends, as well as platforms that we use. More importantly it's imperative to ensure that my team is happy and afforded the opportunity to learn, try new things, and grow in their careers.
Author
I haven't always been one to write my thoughts and share them. Much less create a series of posts as a newsletter. But after attending SxSW 2024 and taking in all of the inspiration that I could, I decided to start posting more often on my LinkedIn page.
Check out the posts in my blog.

Coder
Constant learning is important to me and I usually focus on web technologies or process. Even when coding isn't necessary for my job, I seek out opportunities to write, debug, and experiment with modern development techniques. This keeps my skills sharp and my solutions cutting-edge. I believe that a hands-on approach is essential for learning the intricacies of coding and remaining adaptable in an ever-changing technological landscape.
Tinkerer
I'm naturally drawn to exploring new and unconventional technology. Whether it's testing frameworks, automation tools, or novel approaches to development, I dive into areas that stretch beyond my team's usual projects. This curiosity fuels innovation and enhances the breadth of solutions I bring to the table.
