About

I’m a high-agency full-stack engineer who doesn’t just wait for specs — I hunt down problems, design solutions, and ship them fast. From scalable backends and smooth frontends, Lately, I’ve been pushing further into AI-powered systems — integrating LLMs, automating workflows, and building tools that make software smarter, not just faster. Whether it’s distributed systems, resilient APIs, or experimenting with AI in production, I thrive on making ideas real and useful.
