about me
I'm a software engineer and lifelong tinkerer who likes figuring out how things work and then finding a way to make them better. I work across application development, identity and access management, and Zero Trust architecture, helping turn complicated problems into software that is secure, reliable, and genuinely useful.
When I'm not working, I'm probably still building something. I run a homelab where I experiment with self-hosting, infrastructure, networking, and home automation, and I have a steady rotation of side projects that give me an excuse to learn something new. I also enjoy cooking, working on projects around the house, and generally finding ways to turn “I wonder if I could…” into an actual project.
I take the same approach to professional work that I do to my personal projects: understand the problem, build something that makes sense, and make it secure.
