Hi, I'm Billy

Full-Stack Developer & Designer

I build thoughtful web experiences with clean code and intentional design. Based in Charlottesville, VA with 8+ years of front-end expertise, currently expanding into full-stack development through Flatiron School's Software Engineering program.

About Me

I started as a graphic designer, evolved into a front-end developer, and now I'm growing into full-stack engineering. My background in design gives me an edge in building interfaces that aren't just functional—they're delightful to use.

I care deeply about clean code, accessibility, and creating digital experiences that feel natural and intuitive. When I'm not coding, you'll find me exploring the Blue Ridge Mountains or experimenting with new web technologies.
