Hi there 👋

I'm a Software Engineering Leader & Developer with experience in high-growth startups since 2017. Experienced in distributed systems, local-first collaborative applications, high-performance frontend architectures, and AI-native product features. Also I just really like building things, even if there is no chance they will ever work or be useful.
