About

I build and ship web products, frontend, backend, infra. Most of my work has been at startups and scaleups where I wore many hats: scoping features, writing code, setting up CI/CD, and mentoring. I like owning things end-to-end and I'm good at figuring out what to build when specs are minimal.
