Modere

Director of Digital Media and Customer Experience

Mar 2025 – Apr 2025

This exquisite compilation showcases a diverse array of photographs that capture the essence of different eras and cultures, reflecting the unique styles and perspectives of each artist. Fleckenstein’s evocative imagery, Strand’s groundbreaking modernist approach, and Kōno’s meticulous documentation of Japanese life come together in a harmonious blend that celebrates the art of photography. Each image in “The Stories Book” is accompanied by insightful commentary, providing historical context and revealing the stories behind the photographs. This collection is not only a visual feast but also a tribute to the power of photography to preserve and narrate the multifaceted experiences of humanity.

Cutera

Web Development Manager

Sept 2020 – Feb 2024

As the Web Development Manager my role was to look at current systems and bring them up to more modern standards while also looking for opportunities to empower Cutera employees through technologies. I consolidated multiple sites onto a standard server setup and added better security to accessing these systems through SAML with Okta. Another focus of my role is working with contractors/agencies to both manage timelines and development standards. As needed I would also use puppeteer to crawl sites to gather data.

I focused on building team standards and fostering collaboration between my team and various business leaders inside and outside of IT.

As a Website Specialist, I was brought in to assist with creating web pages based on designers’ Photoshop documents. As I worked in this role, I tested the capabilities of the system and was able to create more accurate web pages based on the supplied documents. This empowered the designers to create more complex pages that were more interactive than they were previously able to create.

Apria Healthcare

Front-End Mobile Web Developer (contractor)

Oct 2012 – Nov 2013

I was contracted to create a web app that provided the sales team the status of their orders. At the time, their team had to rely on a terminal application to get their data. This system enabled their mobile team members to access their data on their smartphones. After the creation of the web app, I worked with various teams across the organization to fix errors, create training resources, and answer additional questions. I designed and coded the front end of the system. The source of data was provided by a Java developer.
