About me
I bring a rare blend of hands-on software engineering and leadership: I’ve delivered product work across game development, backend systems, cloud infrastructure, and cross-functional project execution. The common thread is simple: turning complex requirements into coherent technical systems that teams can build and ship with confidence.
My experience spans from building gameplay features in Unity and C# to designing production-grade services in Python and FastAPI, managing AWS infrastructure, and orchestrating projects across design, production, QA, and engineering stakeholders.
I’m especially effective at bridging technical strategy with business needs — translating product objectives into architecture, planning, and execution without losing velocity or quality.
