Senior Software Engineer and full stack developer with 8+ years shipping scalable web applications, REST & GraphQL APIs, and microservices across enterprise, fintech, and media. I work daily in Python (Django, FastAPI, Flask), JavaScript / TypeScript (React, Next.js, Node.js), and Golang, with AWS, GCP, Azure, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and CI/CD close enough to call them coworkers. I also speak fluent Kafka, RabbitMQ, and Redis—because nothing says “I love distributed systems” like politely asking a message broker to stop yelling at 2 a.m.
If you searched for Python developer, Django engineer, FastAPI backend developer, React frontend engineer, cloud-native developer, or “someone who has opinions about API pagination,” you’re in the right README.

- High-traffic APIs and microservices (think: serious RPS, not “works on my laptop”).
- Performance work: SSR, lazy loading, caching, and the ancient art of not calling the same endpoint twelve times because React felt lonely.
- ML / NLP touchpoints: SageMaker integrations, BERT-flavored chatbots, summarization experiments—enough to collaborate with data scientists without pretending I’m a Kaggle grandmaster.
- Leadership: mentoring, code review, architecture discussions, and translating “CEO vision” into tickets that actually close.
- Senior Python Developer @ Dell Technologies — APIs, microservices, cloud automation, and the kind of enterprise scale where “small config change” is never small.
B.S. Computer Science — Seattle Central College (2012–2016)
- My favorite design pattern is “make it someone else’s problem”—also known as microservices (when done responsibly).
- I believe every good CI/CD pipeline should be boring. Excitement belongs in video games, not deploys.
- I’ve optimized load times from ~30 seconds to under a second; your spinner and I are not on speaking terms.
- GraphQL and REST both live in my head rent-free. They pay in trade-offs.
