About Me
I'm a full-stack web developer based in Montgomery, Alabama, with over 15 years of experience turning ideas into practical digital solutions. I began my career at Hatton-Brown Publishers, where I worked my way up from helping with holiday displays to managing all web development for their publications and conferences. I rebuilt legacy systems, developed custom tools to improve workflows, and even launched a new division focused on building advertiser websites. A standout project involved automating data syncing between FileMaker and WordPress, which significantly improved internal efficiency.
For the past six years, I've been the Webmaster for the Alabama Community College System. I've led major initiatives, including a complete website overhaul and the creation of a custom search tool for policies and procedures. I've worked closely with teams across sectors like law enforcement, healthcare, and manufacturing. One of my proudest achievements was modernizing the AAMA scholarship process—boosting scholarship distribution fivefold and earning me the Impact Award.
