I haven't seen The Roots live since I lived in Berlin many years ago. That sentence covers more time than I want to think about. So when I heard they were coming to the Blue Note in LA, I immediately knew I wanted to attend. The band and the venue did not disappoint.

flippin' pixels into creative UI since 2002...
Hi, I'm Phillip.
I'm a Senior UX Developer with over two decades of experience building design systems, engineering UX at scale, and developing accessible, intuitive interfaces with clean, semantic code. I live somewhere between design and code, turning ideas into accessible, token-driven component systems with clean, semantic markup.
My work spans CSS architecture, web components, design tokens, accessibility, SEO, performance optimization, and more recently, AI tooling and MCP development. I care about the whole picture: the design system that keeps teams aligned and the production code that ships to users.
I'm based in Southern California with my wife and two sons. When I'm not flippin' pixels, I'm probably on a sideline or in some bleachers yelling things that definitely aren't helping.
