I've spent 10+ years building production systems in unusual domains: cybercrime investigations, scientific IoT platforms, confidential computing with AWS Nitro Enclaves, and international field operations software. The variety has been deliberate.

What drives me is building systems that just hum along; systems that are reliable, observable, and fast. I want clear logs, measurable performance, and the confidence that comes from knowing exactly how something works. I like owning that end-to-end: from the first database migration to the deployment pipeline. And of course, security is top-of-mind from the start.

I work across the full stack — Go, Laravel/PHP, Node.js, React, Vue, CSS — but I'm most at home in backend and infrastructure work: event-driven services, performance optimization, DevOps, and platform engineering.
