About
I connect more than a decade of institutional IT experience with backend software development, bringing an operations-aware perspective to systems that need to remain useful, maintainable, and reliable.
My primary path is PHP and Laravel. I am expanding that foundation into Java and Spring while continuing to work across APIs, relational data, automated testing, containers, and delivery practices.
I am diving deep into agentic coding tools such as Claude Code and Codex to improve how I design, test, review, and deliver software.
