About

Ten-plus years shipping production React and TypeScript across enterprise banking, global e-commerce, and life sciences. I own product surfaces end to end, from the data model to the pixel.

I'm deep in design systems and component architecture, and I ship daily on a continuous cadence. I do my best work in small, high-ownership teams. I'm allergic to bureaucracy and prefer working software over perfect plans.

AI tooling made me dramatically faster without giving up craft. Claude Code is a daily development partner, not autocomplete, and I build AI features into the products themselves, not just around them.
