About Me

I'm a software engineer based in Cleveland, Ohio specializing in high-throughput, event-driven backend systems. I've spent my career building services that process millions of events per minute — the kind of work where latency and correctness both matter.

I care deeply about clean architecture, developer experience, and shipping software that actually holds up. When I'm not writing code, I'm usually out hiking with my dog, catching a live show, or experimenting in the kitchen.
