01 · ABOUT

I turn complex problems into simple, beautiful, intuitive software.

Full-stack developer with a strong passion for technology. I love living where front-end and back-end meet. I take a proactive approach, take initiative in solving problems, and adapt fast to changing requirements.

My mission: transform complex problems into simple, beautiful, and intuitive designs that speak the user's language while reflecting the brand's identity, work that's not just technically sound, but aesthetically sharp.

02 · HOW I WORK NOW

AI-native by default.
Senior engineering, accelerated by AI.

I treat AI as a core part of my workflow, applied across architecture, implementation, code review and operations. The result is faster delivery and tighter feedback loops, without compromising on quality, security or maintainability.

LLM-assisted delivery

Agentic coding and LLM tooling integrated into day-to-day work, with every change held to senior review standards.

AI product features

RAG, chat, embeddings and LLM workflows integrated into production products, end-to-end.

Architecture first

Eleven years of system design ensures AI accelerates the right solution, built to last.

Automate everything

CI/CD, testing and operational tooling automated end-to-end, a discipline recognised with awards at IBM.
