Hello.

I'm a self-taught software engineer with a background in Civil Engineering and over 12 years of experience building products that solve real problems. I care deeply about how software fits into the bigger picture—how it supports people, processes, and business goals. I’ve worked across startups and scaling teams, helping shape architecture, lead by example, and mentor others. I thrive in collaborative spaces where engineers have a seat at the table and where thoughtful systems design makes a meaningful difference.

I got my private pilot's license in 2011 and it was one of the most rewarding thing I've done. I love the challenge it presents with a real, tangible feeling of success. I also remain very close friend with my initial flight instructior and it was through him I met my mentor that encouraged me to get into software development.

While life regularly gets in the way of flying I have gotten to do all sorts of cool things like fly over the Golden Gate Bridge and spend some time doing aerobatics. Soon I will begin working towards my instrument rating.
