Hi! I’m a Software Engineer focused on building simple, efficient, and robust systems.

I’ve worked on systems that span cloud infrastructure, microservices, and custom developer tools — from optimizing large-scale MongoDB queries to implementing automated documentation. I prefer dependency-light, observable systems that are easy to understand and are robust.

Most recently I worked for SPINS on their Product Intelligence team. Before that, I worked for a startup called Pinto which was acquired by SPINS. And before that, I began my career at Wakefern Food Corp. in their CISD department working accross several teams - Business Intelligence, Mobile Applications, and Finance.

Most of my professional experience has been working with TypeScript as a Full Stack Engineer. Although I have worked extensively with Go and Python on various projects. While I enjoy working across the stack, my strengths lean toward backend infrastructure, distributed systems, and developer tooling.

Outside of work, I like to explore focused projects that help me explore and better understand topics I am interested in. Currently I am learning Rust which I am very much enjoying. To faciliate my learning experience, I am currently implementing a POP3 server and client. I have also implemented a simple Key/Value Database in Go, a b+ tree in JavaScript, and my own fully automated trading system in Go.

Outside of programming, I also enjoy running, hiking, and tinkering with music. I have run 3 half-maratons and hope to run a full marathon as well as an ultra marathon.
