Intelligent DesignFrontend Developer • Portland, Oregon • Open to Work
Howdy, my name is Josh. I'm a visual artist who rode every tech wave of the internet—from designing in Photoshop to Flash to TypeScript to front-end engineering, and now AI-assisted workflows and code orchestration. That's my superpower: I bring a passion for design and coding, but I've fully embraced an AI-first approach. I've caught every wave as it's come, and I'm enjoying this current one, once again relearning everything I used to do.
Let's talk about the elephant in the room. I've been deep in the AI trenches—testing everything from Claude Code to Cursor to Devin. Turns out natural language is the new programming language, and my gift of gab has become a technical advantage. My approach? AI-first process with human-first judgment. I know when AI suggestions make sense and when they don't, because I've built the foundation: a decade of React/TypeScript expertise paired with cutting-edge AI orchestration. As Sam Altman recently quipped, "It looks like the idea guys are going to have their day in the sun." Well, I'm an idea guy who can also ship code—and I'm ready to shine.
