About me

I'm a front-end developer at Webs, where I build web applications that help small businesses get online. I live right outside Washington, DC.

Current projects

I build tools and examples for smarter software interfaces. I'm exploring the history of UI programming and the powerful models behind revolutionary interfaces. My current projects center on constraint programming as a way to build user interfaces that blur the distinction between input and output.

Scrubbing budget

This visualization of the US Federal Budget lets you explore questions like: "how much would we have to raise taxes in order to increase education spending?" or "how much could we cut the deficit by raising the retirement age for social security?"

Scrubbing linear calculator

A just-started attempt to create a small part of Bret Victor's scrubbing calculator.

Sketchpad

Recreating Ivan Sutherland's Sketchpad, the first graphical user interface, in ClojureScript.

Cassowary

I'm trying to give back to Alex Russell's awesome fork of Cassowary for js by adding some new features, especially with the new parser-based api.
