// chapter 01 — who

The engineer behind the systems.

Senior Full Stack Engineer and Co-Founder with 4+ years of progressive experience, from intern to senior, across a US-based company and a self-founded venture. I architect and deliver enterprise-grade platforms across ERP, healthcare, LMS, inventory, and event management — and increasingly build AI directly into the product, not bolted on top.

Configure-to-order portal for custom safety gear

US firefighter & rescue helmet manufacturer

A login-gated ordering portal for a firefighter & rescue helmet manufacturer. Distributors configure one or more fully-spec'd helmet models and hit a single button — the system builds the order, generates the receipt PDFs, and emails them to both the distributor and the company. It replaced a manual, hand-typed PDF that was the entire order pipeline.
