Hi! I'm Syd, software engineering leader & front end developer.
I'm currently a Platform Engineering Manager at a kick ass company called Thinkific. Are you impressed with my domain name? I hope so, because it was expensive.

I've been pushing pixels since before static websites were cool, when icons were image sprites and rounded corners were background images. I've been in the industry for over 14 years and have experience as a people leader both agency and product side.
I love typography and believe strong attention to UX is a must. I'm passionate about fostering growth and collaboration within my team and believe wholeheartedly that the best work comes from cross-team collaboration, especially between developers and designers. I'm super structural, and I love brainstorming ways to improve and refine processes.
I'm really interested and passionate about web accessibility. It's something I'm learning more and more about all the time.
Outside of work, you'll find me spending time with my family. I love:
