About

Systems that stay fast as they grow.

Full Stack Software Engineer with 4+ years building scalable microservices, RESTful APIs and cloud-native web applications.

I work across Python, JavaScript, React, AWS, Docker and both SQL and NoSQL databases. Most of my work has been in clinical genomics, delivering high-performance systems in Agile teams, with hands-on experience in search optimization, LLM integration and CI/CD pipelines.
