About me

I build software that holds up in production.

From a 25,000-user health platform to AI-powered legal document automation, I care about clean architecture, good UX, and shipping real things.

I'm a Full-Stack Software Engineer with 5+ years of professional experience building web applications across healthcare, legal tech, and SaaS. I care about clean architecture, good UX, and shipping things that hold up in production.
