What I do

I've spent more than 20 years building software, from full-stack web applications and enterprise platforms to distributed services and production infrastructure. Along the way, I've worked with startups and large technology companies, including Apple and Yahoo, learning how to turn complicated requirements into practical, reliable solutions.

I've always enjoyed the intersection of engineering and product development. I care about the architecture behind an application, but just as much about the experience of the person using it. Good software should be secure, dependable, intuitive, and genuinely useful.

These days, I approach development with an AI-native mindset. Tools like Claude Code and Codex let me move from ideas to working software faster than ever, while my engineering experience helps guide the process and evaluate the results. Automated testing, security, performance, and hands-on verification remain essential parts of how I work.

What excites me most isn't simply building software faster. It's having more time to explore ideas, solve meaningful problems, and create things that might otherwise never get built.
