Summary 🚀
I work on software to help people, for work, or both. My principles are:
- solve problems for people - especially by understanding things and making them simpler,
- keep learning - especially learning by trying, failing and succeeding,
- help others learn - especially the ones who love learning,
- habits over achievements - Value what I keep doing, not what I've done or achieved, and
- Feedback - listen and keep feedback loop tight.
Feedback 📈
Do you work with me? Have you worked with me in the past? I'd appreciate feedback, even anonymous.

I’m often torn between making things to help people and tinkering with tech. I design and build for change. I’ve worked on distributed systems, machine learning, 3D web, and mobile apps. I make apps, write on Stack Overflow (top 2%), give talks, write articles, & open source. I received dean’s list & distinction for computer science & engineering degrees. I don’t leetcode, I ChatGPT.
