Steward of the web building composable interfaces for humans and agents.
Most recently on the SDK team at Clerk, I worked on UI components and theming infrastructure—building systems for customization, improving component APIs, and creating developer tooling that makes authentication interfaces more flexible and accessible.
I do my best work on small, highly collaborative teams that ship often and embrace the convergence of human craftsmanship with AI tooling. I care deeply about design and believe the best interfaces emerge when designers, engineers, and intelligent systems work together.

Alex is an excellent teammate and an exceptionally talented web developer. When he joined the team we gained an incredibly strong collaborator. His thoughtful approach to both producing work and actively reviewing code instantly improved the entire teams workflow. It is clear that Alex is a life long learner and therefore is always sure to bring a new, novel approach to solve a problem.

Alex and I worked together on the design team at NationBuilder. Alex is a natural problem solver, and a talented visual designer. That combination makes him an excellent front-end engineer. We worked together on a new feature with a complex UI and he was able to interpret the designs with a care and detail that is rare, while also making thoughtful UX suggestions. Not to mention Alex is just a great person, easy to talk to and lovely to work with.
