"The only way to do great work is to love what you do." – Steve Jobs

I’m a software engineer with over 5 years of experience building secure, scalable systems across the full stack. At my current company, I’ve delivered projects such as a real-time customer pipeline in Python, Kafka, and AWS that cut outreach delays from hours to minutes, a PCI-compliant checkout system with CyberSource, integrated with Apple Pay and Google Pay, and a serverless pricing engine built with Python, Pulumi, ECS Fargate, and Athena that transformed hours of manual work into minutes.

Alongside backend and infrastructure, I’ve built internal-facing React and Streamlit dashboards that give non-technical teams visibility and control over business-critical workflows.

My core toolkit includes Python, Java, Go, Spring Boot, React, Angular, Kafka, AWS (ECS Fargate, Lambda, S3, Athena), Docker, and Pulumi, with hands-on experience deploying secure APIs, building data pipelines, and automating infrastructure. I thrive in environments where I can own systems end to end and measure success by how much customers and colleagues rely on the products I build.
