How I work · 04

Useful by design.

  1. 01

    Own your data

    Local-first architecture, portable files, and clear choices beat lock-in.

  2. 02

    Quietly capable

    Good software gets out of the way while still rewarding power users.

  3. 03

    Ship the details

    Performance, accessibility, and polish are part of the product—not cleanup.

A little about me

Engineer by trade.
Builder by instinct.

I’m a lead software engineer with a background spanning frontend, native Apple development, DevOps, and systems. I like the whole journey: finding the useful idea, shaping the interface, and shipping the thing.
