I'm currently at Shock Dav, building TraderSync—a commercial trading-journal platform—across web and mobile, with a stack that includes React Native, Nuxt, Vue, Go, and Python. I enjoy moving between languages and architectures, focusing on pragmatic problem solving and shipping solid, maintainable software. I lead small engineering teams while staying hands-on, and I maintain a personal track of learning in enterprise development on the side. I value refactoring, choosing the right tool for the job, and honest communication about what I know well and what I haven't touched yet. I aim to keep the codebase clean and the team productive, even when venturing into new domains or AI-enabled work.
