Company BookRenter


I’m a Rails enthusiast and developer, with B.S. from Yale University. I spent two years on the development team for the university’s tech support group, writing Yale’s shift/employee/payform tracker. I’ve also got a few smaller side projects I work on in my spare time, including some modifications to Xavier Shay’s Enki blogging engine and Thoughtbot’s Paperclip plugin.

Currently I’m on the development team for BookRenter, a Bay Area startup working in online textbook rentals.
