Fullstack engineer, seven years building component-driven applications in React, TypeScript, Node and other modern backend technologies. Polished interfaces, owned end to end. I sweat interaction detail and web performance, and my product instincts hold up with real users. Equal parts builder and communicator.
I build with Claude Code daily and ship LLM features to production.

This view is for you. My entire résumé is in the first response: no JavaScript, no bundler, no minification, no tables to untangle, no text trapped in an image. No muss, no fuss.
01 · text layer — the résumé, minus the interface

Owned features end to end on a multi-tenant AI product, in React and TypeScript.
Owned features end to end on a multi-tenant AI product: complex task schedulers, token usage visualizations, and the React/TypeScript surfaces customers used most, plus the UX and product decisions behind them.
Built the output surface for an AI tool generating sales slidedecks through multiple models, so people could verify and rework whatever the model wrote, then present it live.
Built and maintained the shared React component patterns the team relied on to ship consistent UI quickly.
Worked directly with the founders to turn customer insight into product decisions and shipped features, closing the loop between feedback and release.
Integrated frontend applications with CRM APIs (Salesforce, HubSpot).

Owned the front end of a consumer endurance-running tool in Vue and TypeScript.
Owned the front end on a small team, building responsive consumer-facing interfaces for an endurance-running tool in Vue and TypeScript.
Translated Figma layouts into pixel-accurate interfaces, and picked up Vue on the job while shipping from week one.
Implemented shared Storybook components for buttons and typography to keep the UI consistent.
Full-stack work on a real-time audience platform used live at Fortune 100 events.
Worked full stack on a real-time audience platform used live in front of Fortune 100 audiences: React and TypeScript in front, Laravel and Redis behind it, with WebSocket interaction that stayed fast under load.
Validated API payloads at runtime with io-ts, so a bad response failed at the boundary instead of somewhere deep in the UI.
Built an in-app configuration suite for customizing presentations, making complex authoring feel simple for non-technical users.
Owned the unit testing for its color palette configuration, where the combinations multiply fast and a regression shows up on stage.
Partnered with product and design to turn Figma into responsive, pixel-accurate, reusable Material UI components, keeping the interface consistent as the product grew.
