A Little About Me. 

I care about writing clear, maintainable code and building systems that keep working—even when things go wrong. Most of my time goes into stitching together tooling, content sync, background tasks, and edge logic in a way that feels boringly reliable.

I'm not trying to be the smartest dev in the room—I'd rather be the one who learns fast, listens well, and makes thoughtful decisions. I ask when I don’t know, take advice when it’s offered, and document what I figure out along the way.

These days I live in TypeScript, working with Sanity, Cloudflare Workers, and Hasura. I build pipelines that sync data across platforms, process webhooks, handle edge behavior, and keep things running smoothly with background jobs and fallback strategies. I focus on making code predictable, testable, and easy to come back to—even after weeks away.

My focus isn’t on using flashy tools, but on making sure the foundation holds: I care that data flows are shaped cleanly, tests catch what they should, and the developer experience feels solid—for me now, and whoever picks it up next. I think a lot about how code is organized, how errors are handled, and how things fail safely.

I organize my code with future devs in mind: modular structure, meaningful naming, clear separation of concerns, and strong testing practices using tools like Vitest, MSW, and Playwright. I refactor often, keep logic small and focused, and treat DX as a priority—not an afterthought. I try to avoid cleverness in favor of clarity. I write utilities that can be reused and tested in isolation. And while I’ve built a growing confidence in the tools I use daily, I still ask questions, seek advice from more experienced engineers. That’s how I grow.

I don’t reach for tools like Redux, Gatsby, or Styled Components much anymore, but I’ve used them deeply in the past and can pick them up again when needed. I got started building fast, purpose-driven sites for marketing and SaaS—performance, simplicity, and clarity have stuck with me ever since.

I'm a self-taught developer who got into coding with no formal background—just curiosity, persistence, and a love for solving problems. I started freelancing without any prior experience in development or client work, and within a year, built a solid reputation on Upwork. Not long after, I became an independent contractor and reached a six-figure salary in under two years of fun and learnings. It wasn’t easy—but I learned fast, asked better questions, and focused on building trust through reliable, maintainable work.

Outside of coding, I’m a night owl—most of my energy and focus comes after dark, when everything’s quiet. I enjoy calm cafés, being in nature, and exploring cities with my phone camera, slowly learning the art of street and architecture photography. I’m drawn to simple things with a touch of elegance—cozy spaces, clean design, and anything that feels quietly intentional. When I’m not working, I’m usually walking, observing, or just enjoying stillness without trying to fill it.
