I’m a Product-Minded Software Engineer who likes building things that are clean, tested, and easy to hand off. Lately, I’ve been focusing on boosting system efficiency through DevOps, Playwright automation, and observability. I thrive in high-autonomy, async-first environments where I can own features end-to-end and let the code do the talking. When I’m away from the keyboard, I’m usually tinkering with new tech, weightlifting, film photography, training Muay Thai, or playing Street Fighter 6.
