I didn’t set out to be an engineer—I just couldn’t stop building things. From the earliest days of hacking together AngularJS interfaces to squeezing every last drop of performance out of a Node.js server, I was always more interested in making something work better than settling for “it works.”
Along the way, I discovered a love for scale—technical scale, team scale, infrastructure scale. I went from building user-friendly frontends to designing resilient backend architectures in AWS, shaving 40% off infra costs and cutting latency by nearly a third. Performance wasn’t just a metric; it became a mindset.
I’ve led engineering teams, mentored developers, launched e-commerce platforms, and built systems that don’t just run—they hum. I’ve worked across the stack, across tools, and across timelines that always seemed too tight—until we shipped.
What drives me now? The blend of systems thinking and human impact. Helping others grow, building scalable systems, and always finding that next optimization or idea that makes everything click
