Ethos

I'm a better dev than designer, so I tend to err on the side of simplicity. I like when things are straight forward and easily understood. That being said, I try to break this portfolio as often as I can by trying new technologies and patterns, and staying aligned with best practices in the ecosystem. I would encourage anyone with a personal portfolio to do the same.

Typography

This site uses the Inter typeface because it looks great and is less for me to worry about.

Tech Stack

This site is built with Next.js with TypeScript and Tailwind v4. It's hosted on Vercel.

TypeScript

Obviously.

Tailwind

Tailwind let's you do two things — develop quickly and create a cohesive design system. Building with Tailwind means saving time without sacrificing meaningful work.

Next.js & Vercel

Next.js is the best, if not the easiest, way to build web applications with React. It only makes sense to host a Next.js application with the team that maintains it.

Domain name

The domain name is just my name without any vowels. I first created it as my GitHub username, and it only made sense to continue using it for anything dev related.
