About Me

My Journey

I'm a platform and full-stack engineer who cares about reliable systems and clean, maintainable code. I enjoy breaking complex problems into manageable pieces and delivering solutions that prioritize security, performance, and simplicity.

I started in chemistry and math — running quantum-chemistry simulations on remote HPC clusters — before moving into software engineering, where I still apply that same analytical, systems-level thinking. Since then I've built full-stack applications, founded and grew a DevOps team from the ground up, and gone deep on AWS, Terraform, and CI/CD automation. My old GitHub history shows projects spanning many years, reflecting my long-term passion for coding and continuous learning.

I thrive on tackling challenging problems, learning new technologies, and contributing to projects that make an impact. Whether it's optimizing performance, improving user experience, or mentoring teammates, I approach every project with curiosity, precision, and a love for elegant solutions.
