| About me

I love puzzles. Whether it’s a quick five minute brain teaser or the way that good design gets all the pieces in just the right place, I’m always excited to explore the ways solutions unfold, both with my students as an educator and with my clients as a software developer.

I love how puzzles are a way to explore the creative act. Oftentimes the creativity I get to explore in music production or learning a foreign language is also found in a great piece of code and, likewise, the logic and problem solving from a math question somehow also finds its way into seemingly unrelated areas of my life, like dance. Puzzles really bring together so many different types of creativity all at once. And I’m endlessly fascinated by that, and, of course, to find and solve the next one.

Let’s start putting the pieces together on your next project!
