~/about/the-builder
The Builder
I turn complex requirements into clean, maintainable systems. From database schemas to API architectures, I craft solutions that scale—all backed by 85%+ test coverage.
~/about/the-problem solver
The Problem Solver
When queries take minutes, I make them take seconds. When systems crash, I find out why. Every bug is a puzzle I'm determined to solve.
~/about/the-learner
The Learner
Tech evolves fast, and so do I. Currently diving deeper into system design, cloud architecture, and pursuing my Bachelor's while working full-time.
