I build scalable, high-performance backend systems that power growth for startups. My background in healthcare analytics adds a unique edge—translating complex data into actionable insights and bridging the gap between technical solutions and business goals.

I thrive in collaborative environments, partnering with cross-functional teams to deliver APIs, optimize databases, and design architectures that perform at scale. Whether it’s fine-tuning performance or translating stakeholder needs into clean, maintainable code, I focus on creating solutions that last.
