CogDev is my personal company which I have operated informally for many years before registering it as a business several years ago.

I have completed many freelance projects using a wide variety of languages and skillsets, from PHP and MySQL to talking to hardware using Python APIs. As a solo freelancer, I am responsible for not only front- and backend development, but also for "softer" areas of project management such as requirements-gathering and customer support.

In addition to projects for companies, I also maintain a personal project under the Cognitive Development name as a breeding ground and testbed for new ideas I'd like to try out. At its peak, this project received over 10 million page views and around 26,000 unique visitors monthly.

I operate in a dual role as both the team lead for Marketplace Trust & Safety as well as a platform lead for UI Engineering on Marketplace. I work across the entire Marketplace app helping to level up the org-- championing best-practices, performing architecture review, identifying workstreams for teams, and leading cross-team projects.

I am also a core UI interviewer, having completed over 300 interviews. I primarily focus on architectural and behavioral interview axes.

As the team lead for Marketplace Seller Growth, I focused primarily on making Marketplace easier to use for sellers. I monitored suggestions and problems from our seller feedback group, created workstreams for the team, and shipped several core features for sellers including Magic Upload (upload photos to a listing in progress on your computer using your phone) and Quick Composer (a simplified, friendly listing composer for new sellers).
