My Skillsets

Web Engineering

Throughout my career, I have primarily focused on front-end web development, specializing in the creation of design systems and web components that bring life to diverse applications. The front-end realm is where I truly excel as a developer.

While my experiences as a full-stack developer have been limited, I embrace the opportunity to expand my skill set. I am eager to grow and become as proficient in building APIs as I am in crafting front-end solutions.

Here are a few of my favorite languages, frameworks, and technologies that I enjoy working with:

Creative Production & Community Building

Outside of writing code, I lead one of the most absurd event series in the country — Ryan Meetup, a national community built only for people named Ryan.

I handle concept creation, branding, programming, promotion, and partnerships for each of our 15+ events. From Ryan Raves to Ryan Summits, I bring people together through shared identity, inside jokes, and a deeply unserious sense of seriousness.

These projects have been featured in The New York Times, the Los Angeles Times, CBS News, and ABC News, just to name a few — and prove how far a ridiculous idea can go with the right execution.
