Software Engineer | Full-Stack & Data

Fullstack Software Engineer building production-grade systems that improve real business operations. At Amazon, I design and own internal tools used daily in live environments, saving teams over 90 minutes of work per day. I specialize in scalable web architectures at the intersection of Data Engineering and Fullstack Development.

About Me

Portrait

I am a Fullstack Software Engineer focused on building production-grade systems that solve real business problems. My background in Computer Science allows me to combine strong engineering fundamentals with a practical understanding of how software is used in day-to-day operations.

I currently work in a high-performance operational environment at Amazon, where I design and develop internal software systems that are used daily in live production. My work focuses on building reliable, maintainable solutions that improve workflows, reduce manual effort, and scale across teams.

My engineering interests lie at the intersection of web development, data engineering, and distributed systems. I enjoy working across the full stack — from designing clean APIs and data models to building intuitive user interfaces. I place strong emphasis on clean code, system architecture, and long-term maintainability.
