ABOUT

Full Stack Software Engineer building at the intersection of performance and user experience.

Based in Brooklyn, NY. Currently engineering at Traba. I build systems that scale—from WebGL visualizations to distributed backends.

TypeScript by day, Rust by curiosity. Always optimizing, always shipping.
