About Me

I'm a software engineer who values clarity, reliability, and pragmatism. My focus is on full-stack TypeScript, scalable API design, and making systems observable and maintainable. Outside of work, I enjoy philosophy, economics, and game theory — perspectives that shape how I think about building software and teams.
