Software Engineer by day. Still a software engineer by night. Curious, always learning, and chasing that 1% improvement every day.

Based in Earth


// about

I’m a backend engineer with 3.7 years of experience building systems and APIs. Over the last few years, I’ve worked on real-world systems handling thousands of requests and integrations, where things don’t always go as planned (and that’s where most of the learning happens).

From reducing failure rates to chasing down production issues, I’ve spent a lot of time understanding how systems behave outside ideal conditions. I think in terms of trade-offs, not just what works, but what continues to work as systems scale.

Coffee fuels my day.
