Work Experience
Building heating systems that actually work for people. I'm handling everything from mobile, web and embedded apps to firmware, server setup, and deployment. Building and coordinating all the pieces to get the whole system connected and running.
Worked on TweetShift as the main designer and frontend developer. Built the new dashboard and iterated on multiple features based on user feedback. Currently paused while focusing on Herschel work.
Started by suggesting features and creating mockups based on community feedback. Gradually took on more design work, built the design system and worked on core watch party features like rooms, chat, and control sharing. Eventually started implementing my own designs directly, fixing bugs and building features from start to finish.
Projects
Built and contributed to a community wiki for games by Hexage.
Contributed to branding, resources and management of a community effort to gather discord-related resources.
Built a Discord bot that had lots of utilities around message XP, logging, role rewards and general Discord chat management.
Custom Discord bot for SBK that integrated with Nadekobot and implemented a challenge system for user engagement.
Volunteering
Ran a 1000+ member community for YouTuber LazyDoodleDoo. Handled moderation, built custom bots, and managed day-to-day operations.
Ran a 12,000+ member community around YouTuber Sinbadx. Handled moderation, built tools, and figured out how to keep that many people organized and engaged.
