I'm a tech lead and software engineer with 15 years of experience building scalable web applications with clean, performant code. I'm detail-oriented, collaborative, and care deeply about creating seamless user experiences that drive real business value.

I believe the best engineers never stop learning. Growth happens when you lean into challenges, stay curious, and get comfortable with the uncomfortable.

Perfectionism can get in the way of progress. I care deeply about code quality and UX, but always in service of delivering real value efficiently.

Progress beats hesitation. Whether it's code, a design, or a decision, build the first version and iterate quickly. That's how learning happens.

Great products aren't built on autopilot. I ask hard questions, challenge assumptions, and seek context to make smart, user-driven decisions.

Here's how I approach writing software. Strong opinions, loosely held.

• Write less code - all code is technical debt. I get excited when I see a PR that has more lines removed than added.
• Balance doing things "right" vs. iterating quickly - the goal is to solve business problems, not to write elegant code; however, you should still aim to have both.
• Readable code > short code - write code for the people who actually read it, not the computers that run it. This isn't mutually exclusive to writing performant code. As with the point above, I aim to have both.
• Code should be self documenting - the most appropriate time for comments is answering "why", not "what". If you still feel like you need a comment, more likely it needs to be refactored.

When I'm not at my desk, you can find me:
