About Troy
I’m a frontend developer who builds things at the intersection of pixel-perfect craft and controlled chaos.
I build open source plugins, write tutorials about the weird edges of Gutenberg, and chase creative web projects that probably shouldn’t work but do. I have strong opinions about block theme architecture and whether that CSS animation you’re attempting is brave or reckless, and I’ll happily argue both sides. My code is well-documented, my writing is honest, and my side projects occasionally outnumber my finished ones in ways I’m choosing to call prolific.
When I’m not deep in the codebase, I’m sketching on my iPad, pushing block themes past the point of reason to see what survives, or convincing myself that playing bass and video games is creative fuel and not a coping mechanism.
I deploy on Fridays. That’s not a warning. It’s a flex.
