Hey, I'm Lou!

I spent 30 years as a teacher and principal, shaping learning environments and mentoring future leaders. My passion for innovation pushed me beyond the classroom into technology, where I now focus on coding, web development, and user experience. I specialize in HTML, JavaScript, React, Next.js, and usability best practices to create impactful digital solutions.

These days, I serve as Technical Co-Founder at STATDEBRIEF as well as keeping busy on a number of other projects.

Take a look around. I hope what you find here helps in some small way.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
