About

I'm a passionate software engineer who loves building things that solve real world problems.

Fast forward to today, and I've had the privilege of working on a diverse range of projects. From refactoring legacy codebases to greenfield projects serving thousands to millions of users. I've built consumer facing web applications to complex enterprise systems. My main focus these days is building scalable and maintainable software solutions. I'm particularly interested in leveraging AI to enhance productivity and improve user experiences.

When I'm not coding, I'm usually making 3D art and creating games.

    Senior Software Engineer · Datacamp

    I've been working on the team responsible for logged-out users, focused on increasing conversions. My key contributions include implementing two automations for manual promo campaign processes that streamlined operations, reducing log costs by 80% for one of our microservices, and refactoring a key service for promotional campaigns to improve performance and maintainability. I also refactored and standardized our SEO component in the core application to better control page indexation, and enhanced the core application's UI while fixing critical bugs.
