Hello! I am Angus. Welcome to my website!

You'll find a collection of my work here, from a breadth of my interests, hobbies, adventures, and brainworms.

My main job is working as a software engineer at Stripe. I have six years of tenure building security and privacy applications, and over a decade of programming experience. My skills include full-stack software development, product design, and project management. I specialize in building technology enabled products with visually beautiful and delightful experiences.

I worked at technology startups of sizes large and small in San Francisco, New York, and Buffalo (go Bills). Before Stripe, I worked at Lugg, Optimizely, and a few Buffalo startups. I built software from zero-to-one MVPs to scalable enterprise grade features.


Why does the site look like a default nginx page?

I have very fond memories of snooping autoindex pages on poorly configured servers back in the late 2000s. It's hard to find those nowadays. "Browser default" HTML also has a brutalistic and uninstrusive quality. I think this makes a great foundation for me to share all kinds of things I do. That is not to say there's no styling here—every detail is still meticulously chosen. I could have went for a more conventional modern minimalist design, but what's the fun in that?
