Hi, I’m Cynthia.
I make software, build resilient web software, and write about creating things on the internet.
For over twenty years, I’ve loved turning ideas into real, working tools. I believe technology should feel calm and helpful—never stressful or confusing.
I enjoy building things with care, helping others own their corner of the web, and sharing what I learn along the way. This is my personal space to share my projects and thoughts.
