Senior software engineer with a designer's eye. I've spent years living in the overlap between UX and engineering — the place where intent meets implementation — and I've learned the hard way that the best interfaces aren't the ones with the most features, they're the ones that get out of the way.
These days I care less about shipping fast and more about shipping right: maintainable systems, accessible components, interfaces that age well. Mentoring, reviewing, and raising the bar for the teams I'm on.

🧑🏫 Mentorship & reviews
📬 Let's talk

Taste is a skill. You can't A/B-test your way to a great interface.
Boring code is good code. Clever one-liners are a tax on whoever reads them next — usually me, six months later.
Delete more than you write. The best PR is the one that removes complexity.
⚡ Fun fact: my perfect day starts with a Monday. No, really.
