About Me
Hi, I'm Ryan — a NYC-based software engineer and street/travel photographer. By day, I build thoughtful, efficient, and user-focused applications (with a special love for clean front-end design). By night (and honestly, most weekends), I'm out roaming the city or globe with a camera in hand, capturing candid moments and unexpected beauty as life unfolds around me.
With experience across backend systems, REST APIs, and cloud platforms — and a growing passion for expressive, intuitive UI — I bring a technical foundation with a creative twist. This site is my little corner of the web to showcase both: the code I write and the world I see.
Let's build cool things. Or take cool photos. Or both.
