How I work
Ownership
End-to-end project ownership
From architecture through deployment and the work after launch. I stay accountable for the entire lifecycle, not just my part.
Architecture
System design & direction
Data modeling, stack decisions, and reviews before you commit. I help teams choose paths they can live with.
Teams
Team multiplier
I lead, mentor, and collaborate across product, design, and engineering, translating constraints so the work actually lands.
Engagement
Any team shape, any model
Full-time, contract, and freelance across remote US teams, hybrid setups, and in-person. Forward-deployed too. Embedded inside your org to build the integrations and upgrades your stack needs from the inside.
Open source
Contributor & builder
Maintainable code by default, open source contributions, and tools built on the fly: CLIs, Chrome extensions, web apps, and MCPs that remove friction and multiply what a team can ship.
Why I choose what I choose
Ten tools, one reasoned stack at a time.
Language
TypeScript
TypeScript is the discipline layer. I use it to make intent explicit before bugs get a chance to become runtime surprises.
Projects
Open source projects
Pinned highlights, recently pushed repos, and topic filters — pulled live from GitHub.
