Hi, I'm Wayne. As a Director of Engineering at Cantina, I enjoy finding clever ways to bridge the gap between visual design and engineering to create a beautiful UX for our clients. Through 17 years in the industry I’ve been a part of many different projects; most recently I’ve been tackling development operations challenges and system building. At Cantina, I’ve had the opportunity to work with several noteworthy clients like Empower Retirement, Climacell, Perkin-Elmer, and Lexington Solutions.

I’ve facilitated a dev workshop at the Fluent conference and spoken at UtahJS about advanced debugging with Chrome Dev tools. I have also shared my thoughts about the inevitable self-doubt that creeps into our work at times by way of Imposter Syndrome.

I don't want to belong to any club that will accept people like me as a member.

I’m a bit of a nomad; we’ve moved eight times in the last 15 years. I enjoy cooking and thinking about food scientifically. My love for the tech scene began early on through a love of video and board games. My kids continuously inspire me; without knowing, they challenge my ways of thinking and reasoning.
