I’m a Senior AI Software Engineer with a strong focus on front-end and UI systems, backed by full-stack experience and a deep interest in building clear, durable, high-performance user interfaces.
My work sits at the intersection of design, engineering, and systems thinking—turning complex workflows into intuitive experiences that scale. I bring the same craftsmanship to my personal infrastructure lab, Rainier, where I design, build, and operate self-hosted production systems.
