About

I’m a Software Engineer with about 5 years of experience working across a bunch of different tech stacks—Ruby on Rails, , .NET, React, Angular, and currently working as an Android developer at Microsoft. Having worked at both startups and in big tech, I’ve had the chance to explore a wide range of technologies and dive into all kinds of codebases to get things done. That mix has taught me to be adaptable, pick things up quickly, and focus on solving real problems. I’m curious, open to change, enjoy learning new stuff, and always trying to get better with every project.
