About

My career has been a story of constant evolution, driven by a simple curiosity: how can technology solve problems? That curiosity started in my childhood with Windows 3.1 and FoxPro, and it continues to this day. I've had the privilege of contributing to diverse industries, including enterprise information management, management consulting, agritech, and e-commerce. Starting my career in QA and quickly transitioning to a full-stack developer gave me a foundational perspective on what makes a product truly great. It's this unique blend of experience from ensuring quality to building solutions from the ground up; that I now bring to my role as an Engineering Manager in the Fintech space.
