hi! I'm Justin. ☕ I architect scalable web platforms and design accessible digital experiences.

I build enterprise web platforms that keep content structured and accessible. My work focuses on the intersection of web architecture and content strategy. I ensure large-scale systems are intuitive for creators to manage and easy for everyone to navigate.

Outside of work, I tinker with home automation systems to optimize my living space. The rest of my time is spent gardening, testing new recipes in the kitchen or experimenting with coffee brewing techniques.
