Software engineer who loves turning complicated backend flows into calm, dependable products—and happily follows every API security, distributed-systems, and fintech rabbit hole along the way.
How I work
Build carefully.
Stay curious. Keep it fun.
Leave a friendly trail
Good code should welcome the next person in, with clear rules and no treasure map required.
Listen to production
Logs, metrics, and traces tell great stories. I like giving them a voice from day one.
Fun problems, real systems
Projects I loved working on

A centralized API security platform with a FastAPI control plane, Go reverse proxy, and React dashboard that enforces access policies before traffic reaches backend services.
