I build software, write about systems, and question what others take for granted.

I'm a software engineer with a product mindset. I care about how things are built as much as what gets built — which is why I write. Not to build an audience, but to think more clearly.

I've worked across the full stack, from frontend interfaces to backend systems. I'm most effective when I can move fast and communicate clearly. I'm comfortable being uncomfortable.

"I'd rather be useful than impressive."
