What I do

Software Engineering

With experience across various technologies and project sizes, I've honed my ability to pragmatically deliver high-quality software in a timely manner .

Software Architecture

I've developed expertise in building scalable, maintainable, and extensible software architectures that adhere to SOLID and DDD principles. I've learned from experience that architecture is often more than just stringing together boxes on a whiteboard.

Mentorship

I owe a great deal of my success to the people who've invested their time and knowledge in me. I'm passionate about paying this forward by helping other software engineers achieve their goals and develop their skills.

Leadership

Delivering software projects to the right level of quality and on-time is vital for any business but in startups, like the ones I've been helping to succeed, this is especially true. I've led successful software projects in startups through effective project management, support, and encouragement of team members .
