Software Developer

I build software across the stack, from APIs to real-time systems. I work with Rust and TypeScript, and I use AI daily to prototype faster, validate decisions earlier, and ship code that holds up under production load. I’ve worked with startups building their first product and teams scaling existing systems. At Open Syntax, I co-developed a real-time multiplayer game handling thousands of concurrent connections. I built a Redis-compatible server from scratch in Rust. My systems handle real money, real players, and real stakes.
