About

I work at the intersection of frontend architecture, developer experience, and AI — helping teams scale products without drowning in complexity. As a Principal Architect, I’ve led modernization efforts across large platforms: rolling out design systems, untangling legacy frontends, and guiding high-stakes architectural shifts that directly improved delivery speed and product reliability. My recent work has been specifically focus on AI - RL flows, HF loops and Grounding. I advise early and mid-stage startups on shipping value without burning their teams out.
