Hey, I'm Mike 👋
🗞️ Web Platforms engineer at The New York Times. Previously did Developer Productivity at The Times. Before that, I built web apps, developer tooling, and deployment automation at World Wide Technology. I like making the web a little nicer than I found it.
📍 Based in St. Louis. Fueled by 🐔 chicken & sausage gumbo and 🍍🍕 pineapple pizza (I will not apologize).
🛠️ Things I've Built
Flexbox Playground (source) — visually build flexbox layouts and get the generated markup and styles.
Box Shadow Generator (source) — design and generate CSS box-shadows in the browser.
Electron Highlighter 🎨 — a color theme I made that's available for VS Code, Ghostty, Hyper, Sublime, and a bunch of terminal emulators.
convert-color-cli 🌈 — convert between hex, rgb, and hsl (with transparency support) from the command line.
🧩 Other Stuff
- ✍️ I (barely) write things about frontend dev, developer tools, and occasionally life.
- ⚙️ I maintain a dotfiles repo if you're into that sort of thing.
- 💬 Ask me about Vue, React, JavaScript, CSS, keyboard shortcuts, or Vim.
