An engineering leader who thrives at the intersection of product strategy, customer experience, and high-scale web architecture. Over the last decade, I have specialized in transforming rigid legacy monoliths into cloud-native microservice architectures and delivering high-impact, enterprise-grade AI platforms.
Currently, I scale cross-functional engineering teams and pioneer AI-driven web applications at the enterprise tier.
- Architectural Strategy: Deep expertise in React, Next.js, Micro-Frontends (MFE), and Backend-for-Frontend (BFF) patterns to isolate system blast radiuses and unlock continuous micro-team deployment velocity.
- Enterprise AI Platforms: Led production integrations of large language models (Azure OpenAI) with massive, structured data layers (Databricks) to build secure chat assistants used safely by over 100K clients.
- Cloud Native Migrations: Proven track record of spearheading phased, zero-downtime cutovers from legacy server-side systems to distributed, event-driven cloud services (AWS, Azure, Kubernetes, Kafka).
- Product & Business Synergy: Partnering closely with Product and UX teams to align technical roadmap health directly with business growth, driving measurable 27%+ increases in customer digital engagement.

When I'm not configuring distributed architectures or continuous deployment pipelines, I balance life as an avid runner, hiker, scuba diver, and global traveler.
I am committed to giving back through educational community engagement, spending time volunteering as a math, history, and English tutor to bridge educational gaps for at-risk youth. At home, my partner and I are busy parents to an energetic infant and his older, far hairier sister—Golda, our golden retriever who holds absolute governance over the household.
