Experience

Six years building systems at scale

I'm a Technical Lead with six years of experience building high-performance systems. My approach combines technical precision with a focus on scalability and team leadership—believing the best solutions emerge from clarity of purpose and attention to detail.

Beyond work, I contribute to open-source projects and explore emerging technologies like Rust, blockchain, and quantum computing. I believe great technology should feel invisible—powerful enough to transform industries, intuitive enough that users focus on their goals, not the interface.
