I am currently the CTO and Co-founder at Corridor.
I love to build software, meet new people, serve the public, and most importantly, do the right thing.
I've been maintaining react-jsonschema-form (with many other people's help!) since 2019. I'm also an editor at Reboot.

Some of my previous work:
- In 2024, I ran for Georgia State Senate in one of the most competitive political races in the country (NYT).
- In 2020 and 2022, I worked at the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) to protect the integrity of American elections and defend our democratic processes.
- From 2021-2023, I ran a grants program at Schmidt Futures to support open source software security measures in the wake of Log4Shell (WSJ, GitHub). We deployed nearly $2 million into projects such as Ecosyste.ms, policy research by the Atlantic Council, OTF's FOSS Sustainability Fund, and the Digital Infrastructure Insights Fund.
- I hold a J.D. from Georgetown University Law Center, where I helped start and raise funding for the Judicial Innovation Fellowship, a program to place technologists in state and local courts to improve access to justice.
- I completed my B.S. in computer science at Stanford University, where I was the first CTO of the Stanford Daily; helped organize TreeHacks; and worked at early stage startups including Skiff, Nooks, and Caldera.
