01 About

I build web platforms
end to end.

I'm a senior software engineer with 7+ years building and maintaining enterprise web platforms across frontend, backend, and content-management systems — from architecture through production support.

I've shipped production work in React, Next.js, Vue, and Nuxt on the front end; PHP, Node, Python, and Java on the back end; and headless WordPress in between. Recent work spans NASCAR's fan profile and rewards platform, headless CMS implementations, authentication and profile systems, mobile-app content APIs, and an LLM-powered product demo at AlphaSense.

I care about clear API contracts, reliable integrations, and the testing and observability that keep releases shipping — without losing sight of the accessibility, performance, and craft that make software feel good to use.
