I build software end to end, turning real problems into solutions people actually use, and giving back to the developer communities that shaped me.

About me
Self-taught, endlessly curious, and most alive when an idea turns into something people can actually use.
I taught myself to code three years ago and haven't stopped since. I'm drawn to the hard, unglamorous parts of the stack (fail-open caching, idempotent payment flows, AI agents that hold their state when everything around them doesn't) less for their own sake than for the quiet satisfaction of building a system that just works, even when things go wrong.
What I love just as much is the people side of it: leading build sessions, mentoring newer developers, and shipping tools for the tech communities I'm part of. Sharing what I learn, and learning out loud alongside others, is the part of this craft I'd never trade away.
