Hi, I'm Ryan.

Engineering manager who leads with empathy and trust, and builds teams people want to stay on.

I've spent fourteen years in software, starting in test automation and moving into leading teams, most recently in regulated digital health. I build teams where people feel safe bringing their whole selves to work. These days I'm tinkering with small projects and learning about building software alongside AI.

Vet lab results API

A small REST API that takes in veterinary lab results, validates them, matches them to a patient, flags out-of-range values, and returns each patient's history. Node, TypeScript, Express, and Prisma, with all-fake patients.

Workout consistency tracker

A tracker that asks "am I showing up?", not "am I getting stronger?" The one goal is simple: don't miss two days in a row. Still a work in progress.

Lute Box

A one-page loot box game. Click to open a box, get a lute of some rarity, repeat. Very early days.
