    About

    Product-minded engineer, built for impact

    What I'm good at

    A focused toolbox the things I bring to a team from day one.

    Frontend craft

    Production UIs that feel native on every screen accessible, animated, and running at 60fps.

    Backend & APIs

    Type-safe REST/tRPC contracts with auth, caching, queues, and observability you can rely on.

    AI-enabled features

    RAG pipelines, agents, embeddings, vector search shipped to production, not stuck in demos.

    Systems thinking

    Break ambiguous problems into small, shippable steps. Pick the boring solution most of the time.

    Performance & SEO

    Lighthouse 90+, lean bundles, real Core Web Vitals pages that load fast and rank.

    Pragmatic testing

    Unit + e2e where they pay off. Not religion just enough to keep velocity high.

    My everyday stack

    Tools I reach for first chosen because they let me ship fast without cutting corners.
