About

Senior software engineer with a passion for building resilient systems and sharing knowledge.

Background

I'm a senior software engineer with over a decade of experience building production systems that serve millions of users. My focus is on creating software that not only works today, but continues to work reliably as systems grow and evolve.

Throughout my career, I've worked across the full stack—from database optimization and distributed systems architecture to frontend user experiences. I believe in the power of clear communication, both in code and in writing, to build better software and stronger teams.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me writing about software engineering, mentoring other developers, or exploring new technologies that might solve tomorrow's problems.

Philosophy & Values

Craftsmanship

I believe in writing code that is not just functional, but readable, maintainable, and elegant. Good software is a craft that deserves attention to detail.

Continuous Learning

Technology evolves rapidly, and staying current requires dedication to learning. I'm always exploring new tools, patterns, and approaches.

Knowledge Sharing

The best way to solidify understanding is to teach others. I write, mentor, and contribute to open source to give back to the community.

User Focus

Technology should serve people, not the other way around. I prioritize user experience and accessibility in everything I build.
