01 / About

Engineer who ships production systems, not side projects.

Over the past five years, I have built and shipped cloud-native applications across healthcare, fintech, and inventory management. My stack centers on Node.js, React, and AWS, but the real constant is an obsession with systems that hold up under pressure.

I take ownership from architecture to monitoring. Whether it is HIPAA-compliant healthcare platforms or Slack-integrated financial automation that replaced 70% of manual workflows, I build software that earns trust from the first deploy.
