• Developer Experience • Tech Writer • Fantasy Nerd • World Traveler

Hey, I'm Taylor – a software engineer, technical writer, and fantasy nerd.
I turn complex tech mumbo jumbo into real things that solve problems.
Currently focusing on improving my front-end engineering (React/TS), but still deeply rooted in Python, API design, and docs that don't suck.

Former DevRel @ Mastercard, Stellar, Dropbox.

🚀 Latest Project: DevRel Playground

Built for DevRel Professionals who want to create amazing technical content. Compare AI models side-by-side, get automated quality scores, and discover which prompts work best for your audience. The goal is to make data-driven decisions and to iterate on our assumptions to get better outcomes for the dev community.

Built with: Next.js 15 • TypeScript • Mantine • Vercel
