About

Crafting digital
infrastructure
with intent

Full-stack engineer specializing in distributed systems, cloud-native architecture, and high-performance APIs. I've scaled platforms from zero to millions of daily users across fintech, DevTools, and SaaS.

When I'm not in the terminal, I'm writing about engineering culture, contributing to open-source, or over-engineering my home lab.
