Based in Los Angeles

Hi, I'm Jordan.

Software Engineer

I build clean web applications, automate the boring parts of work, and occasionally make games about Pokémon. Currently coordinating technology on major civic projects across Los Angeles.

Where I focus.

I build software end-to-end and gravitate toward problems that mix engineering with creative thinking. These are the areas I spend most of my time in.

01

Web Applications

Modern web apps built with Next.js, React, and TypeScript. Performance, accessibility, and clarity from the first commit.

  • Next.js / React
  • TypeScript
  • Postgres
02

Automation

Python and workflow tooling that turns manual processes into background tasks. The boring stuff disappears.

  • Python / Django
  • API integrations
  • Workflows
03

AI Integrations

Working with OpenAI and Claude to build practical AI features into real products — not demos, products.

  • OpenAI / Claude
  • RAG
  • Prompt design
04

APIs & Backends

Designing REST APIs and the systems behind them. Comfortable across the stack and the deploy pipeline.

  • Django / Node
  • REST APIs
  • AWS

A bit more
about me.

CS grad from Lehigh University. Currently coordinating technology on major civic projects in Los Angeles, working at the intersection of software, infrastructure, and community impact.

I build the way I think: simple, direct, and obsessed with whether the thing actually works. Outside of the day job I'm digging for vintage tees, exploring LA's music scene, or building small projects for the fun of it.

Things I build for fun.

My side projects live at the intersection of software and the things I actually care about — music, vintage, Pokémon, pop culture. This is where the personality lives.

More side projects in the works — vinyl tooling, concert trackers, and a few things I'm not ready to talk about yet.

Let's connect.

Always open to a good conversation — opportunities, collaborations, or just to talk shop.
