Engineer. Builder. AI-Native.

I started my career as a software tester, where I learned that great software isn't just written — it's questioned, challenged, and verified. That mindset has stayed with me through every role I've held since.

Over 5 years, I've grown from frontend development to full-stack engineering, working across JavaScript frameworks, Java backends, and enterprise commerce platforms. I'm comfortable across the stack and at home in both TypeScript and Java ecosystems.

I'm an AI-augmented engineer. Cursor and Claude are part of my daily toolkit — for scaffolding features, reviewing code, and working through architecture decisions. AI isn't a shortcut in my workflow. It's a skill.

“I use AI as a force multiplier — not a replacement for thinking.”

Cursor for coding. Claude for architecture decisions and code review. ChatGPT for research. These are part of how I work every day.
