I think in systems. My work spans backend engineering, platform architecture, and infrastructure problems at the intersection of reliability and security.

Building reliable backend systems is what I do: real-time pipelines, high-availability infrastructure, the kind of code that runs as well in production as it does on localhost. Performance and reliability matter, but so does who's on the other end of it. I care about the experience clients and users actually have, and that shapes every technical call I make.
