Developer · T1D Warrior · Builder of Things
I write code, manage my blood sugars, and occasionally do both at once. Living with Type 1 Diabetes since birth — this site has real-time glucose data to prove it.
About
I'm a developer passionate about building tools that matter. Living with Type 1 Diabetes has given me a unique perspective on data, health tech, and the power of open-source tools like Nightscout.
When I'm not writing code, I'm watching my CGM, adjusting my basals, and trying to keep that roller coaster in range.
