Portrait

About Me

With a foundation in both engineering and product, I operate at the precise boundary where systems thinking meets real-world impact. I'm a software engineer by craft — backend-focused, framework-minded, and obsessed with the details that separate good software from exceptional software.

Alongside my full-time engineering role, I co-own a startup — an experience that transformed me from an engineer into a builder in the fullest sense. I learned to set product vision, navigate ambiguity, ship under pressure, and make decisions that balance user needs with technical and commercial constraints.

"Engineering precision meets the bravado of an entrepreneur."
