About Sam

I'm a Front-End Engineer with 9 years of experience building marketing websites, growth platforms, and design systems that drive real business impact.

I specialize in the intersection of engineering and user experience, building web platforms that are performant, accessible, and designed to convert. Whether it's a landing page system serving 300+ pages or a component library that cuts development time in half, I focus on creating systems that scale with teams and products.

My approach combines technical rigor with design sensibility. I've improved site load times by 61%, increased organic search traffic by 35%, and built design systems used across multiple products. I care deeply about web performance, accessibility standards, and building experiences that work beautifully for everyone.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me tending to my plants, creating digital art and illustrations, or building games for fun. I believe the best solutions come from curiosity and empathy, understanding both user needs and technical constraints.

Currently based in Maryland, running MYOL Creative, and open to full-time opportunities building web platforms at scale.
