Software Engineer with a strong focus on Fintech/payments. Uniquely experienced in agile startup innovation and enterprise-grade stability.
I don't just write code; I take full ownership of the product lifecycle—from protocol-level architecture to pixel-perfect UI.
As a forward-deployed engineer, I thrive at the intersection of design and logic. My background in hackathons (winning 4+) has trained me to ship viable solutions under extreme pressure, while my enterprise experience ensures those solutions scale.
I have an obsessive eye for UI/UX, believing that even the most complex financial settlement layers deserve an interface that feels magic.
I bridge the gap between Figma and Production. If it doesn't look and feel premium, it doesn't ship.
Rapid prototyping and validation. I build to win, focusing on high-impact features that solve real user problems.
