About
Right now, I'm focused on growing as a developer while sharing openly about my side projects, technical learnings, and adventures in tech.
Currently, I'm a Software Developer at Empire Medical, where I use PHP, Laravel, and Livewire to build and maintain a custom business application. The team is small but highly effective; I get to make meaningful contributions on a daily basis. Previously, I worked in the JavaScript ecosystem, so I'm proficient there as well. I sometimes offer web development services as a freelancer.
I strive to deliver unmistakable user experiences.

git-highlight
A real-time Git command typo highlighter for Zsh
git-highlight is a lightweight, real-time Zsh plugin that instantly highlights typos or mistakes in your Git commands before you hit enter. Built with Bash scripting, it's easy to install, highly performant, and customizable. I made this tool because mixing late night coding and sensitive git commands have caused me some headaches.
