I build enterprise-grade systems that don't break. (scratch that)

I build calm, durable software and push back when complexity doesn't earn its keep.

10 years building production systems across Automotive, EdTech, and Insurance.

Currently at codecentric (opens in new tab). Clients bring hard problems, I leave behind systems that last and teams that feel confident changing them.

I specialize in Angular/TypeScript ecosystems. Pragmatic beyond that.

Currently working on my PJPT cert. Not as a career pivot, just because I believe you build better systems when you understand how they get taken apart.

When not coding: lifting heavy things, obsessing over Neapolitan pizza, building (and breaking) my homelab, and D&D campaigns.

  • I favor early, direct collaboration with UX over ticket-driven handoffs
  • I prefer boring, readable systems over clever ones.
  • I say no when I need to, and I explain why

Current stack:

  • Angular
  • TypeScript
  • Tailwind
  • Testing Library
