My Portfolio

My music background informs my progress as a developer. As a composer and performer, I practiced diligently to master a few specialized skills. As a theorist, I sought cross-disciplinary understanding that required continuous overview of the bigger picture.

Similarly, I find that programming concepts and design patterns become clearer to me as I recognise them in their various JavaScript, Ruby, and Objective‑C guises. This in turn allows me to dive deeper into the intricacies and idiosyncracies of any given one of these languages and its related frameworks.
