Almost a decade of building things on the web and beyond.

about

I've spent close to a decade building software professionally, with most of that time focused on the backend: designing databases, building APIs and architecting the systems that keep applications running reliably at scale. I enjoy solving the technical problems behind the scenes that make products feel fast, stable and effortless to use.

I've worked across web platforms, mobile apps, internal business tools and data-driven systems, in different industries and regions. Along the way, I've led backend rewrites, built services from the ground up and worked closely with teams to turn ideas into production-ready products that people rely on every day.

These days, I also work directly with clients, helping businesses build and strengthen their online presence through custom websites and web applications. Whether I'm starting from scratch or improving an existing system, the goal stays the same: software that's maintainable, reliable and genuinely useful long after it ships.
