Software engineer • builder • traveler

Engineering thoughtful software while living a curious, human life.

I build reliable systems, learn from the road, and collaborate with people and organizations doing meaningful work.

Engineering

Code that doesn't keep you up at night

Clean architecture, sensible defaults, and shipping without the 2am heroics. I'm into boring-in-the-best-way systems.

Less duct tape. More sleep.

Life & travel

Where the wifi is (and isn't)

Travel isn't a sidebar—it's how I learn. Different places, different users, same obsession with clarity and good coffee.

One bag. Many time zones.

Community

Mentorship without the corporate bingo

Workshops, hackathon mentoring, and actually replying to DMs. All free. I do it to help others, not as a gig.

Growing people, not headcount.

Organizations

Impact partnerships

Supporting people and teams building real‑world change with engineering.

Mentorship

People first

Free guidance for builders, founders, and student communities. Helping others, not a side gig.

Travel & stories

Human narratives

Sharing lessons from places, people, and projects.
