About

I've always seen technology as a tool to solve problems that matter, not just to build what's trending. My professional journey (4+ yrs exp.) began as a Front-End Engineer, building an internal Angular framework that powers 10+ application teams. From there, I transitioned into Full Stack Development, where I learned how the right blend of design, usability, and engineering can turn ideas into solutions that users value. That same curiosity eventually led me to AI, where I now work as an AI Engineer, developing AI-powered solutions that make products smarter and more helpful for the people using them. At my core, I like to fix inconsistencies, simplify what feels complicated, and make experiences feel clear and enjoyable. I speak a lot about good UX and the small details that shape how someone feels when they use a product. I’m drawn to human-centered design, FOSS, and data security - not as buzzwords, but as principles that are foundational to technology that earns people's trust and delight. Outside of work, I enjoy watching movies and taking long walks, and occasional runs. Follow along - I write when I have something meaningful to say (personal views only).
