// about me
I'm a Senior Software Engineer with 10 years across full-stack engineering and big data — and I'm most alive when I'm building products people actually use. These days, I'm drawn to SaaS web apps with agentic features: products where AI isn't a gimmick but a core part of the experience. Whether it's wiring up LLM reasoning, building RAG pipelines, designing MCP servers, or shipping autonomous agents that get real work done — this is the space I want to build in next.
// core skills
Designing warehouses, marts, and schemas that scale — dimensional modeling, ETL pipelines, and data quality frameworks that power analytics for hundreds of users.
End-to-end SaaS products — from REST APIs and backend services to polished frontends. Comfortable owning the whole stack and shipping fast.
Building autonomous agents and MCP servers that get real work done — not AI as a gimmick, but as a core part of the product experience.
Knowing when and how to use LLMs to ship faster without ballooning costs — prompt engineering, RAG pipelines, Text2SQL, and AI-assisted development workflows.
Processing and managing data at scale — distributed compute, petabyte-scale pipelines, and the infrastructure that keeps them reliable and cost-efficient.

// side projects
An AI-powered family coordination platform that replaces the 6–8 disconnected apps most families juggle — calendars, to-do lists, shopping, chore trackers, and messaging — with a single intelligent hub that makes family life actually fun.
Solo-built CRM cloud app for independent tax consultants to manage clients and projects end-to-end. Built with AI at the core — LLM-powered features via Claude API, TDD-tested API endpoints, and clean architecture with minimal code redundancy.
Spotted a real gap in the wedding planning space and built a specialized CRM from scratch — giving wedding planners a dedicated tool for client management, vendor coordination, timelines, and event tracking.

A candid breakdown of what AI tools actually helped, what surprised me, and the workflow I settled on after building Tax Firm Pilot from scratch.
Not all AI-assisted dev is equal. Three concrete techniques I use to keep token usage lean, avoid redundant code, and ship faster without ballooning costs.
