Bridging IT operations and frontend architecture through performance and system design.

Senior Software Engineer with a unique foundation in IT operations. I have spent the last 7+ years building scalable UI architectures in React and TypeScript. I focus on bridging the gap between business intent and robust code by defining cross-team API contracts, setting product roadmaps, and owning frontend architecture. My writing explores the intersection of product leadership, system design, and the realities of modern web development.
