I am a Staff Software Engineer with more than 15 years of experience building and operating mission-critical backend services, data platforms, and high-availability applications.
My primary expertise is in Go, distributed systems, service-oriented architecture, event-driven systems, REST and gRPC APIs, SQL and NoSQL data stores, and scalable backend services.
At TextNow, I worked across team boundaries to design, implement, roll out, and measure backend systems for a high-volume consumer communications platform. I was promoted from Senior Software Developer to Staff Software Developer, expanding my focus from feature delivery to architecture and technical direction.

My background includes Python/Django analytics platforms, React and PHP e-commerce development, database applications, reporting systems, and ML-adjacent prototypes. I enjoy partnering with product, analytics, and marketing teams to turn business needs into durable technical solutions.
