As a software engineer, I engineer scalable cloud-first solutions and lead cross-functional teams to deliver high-impact projects. My experience of over 12 years spans various industries, including rideshare, edtech, music data visualization, and client services. I’ve created end-to-end solutions using React, Node, TypeScript, PHP, Go, AngularJS, and Java. I am passionate about mentoring and fostering team growth, always aiming to deliver reliable, high-quality software that aligns with business goals.

As a real estate investor, I’m a big believer in getting both I and my investors a big, risk-adjusted return on their investment through cash-flowing apartment deals. I’m also a short and mid term rental operator, and I host a real estate horror podcast called Bad Deals (look it up on Apple Podcasts & Spotify!)

DM me and tell me what you’re working on in tech or real estate, or both.
Talk soon,
