From running a company to building backend systems.
Before becoming an engineer, I co-founded and ran an audiovisual production company for 10 years. That background shapes how I work: I think about the operational and business context behind technical decisions, not just the code itself.
Since 2022 I've been building backend systems in Go and Python across telecom, government, and finance. I work with microservices, AWS, and Kubernetes in production environments serving hundreds of thousands of users.
