About

I'm a Staff Engineer with over a decade of experience shipping production software—from startups to scale. I specialize in building developer tools, browser extensions, and full-stack applications.

My toolkit centers on the modern JavaScript ecosystem: Vue.js and React on the frontend, Node.js with NestJS or Express on the backend, and PostgreSQL for data that matters.

I believe in building software that respects users—privacy-first, performance-conscious, and accessible by default. Every line of code should serve the people who use it.
