Modern tools. No shortcuts.
I tackle the hard problems.
ABOUT
I'm a full-stack developer based in Austin, TX, building production systems where security is a first-class concern — not a checkbox at the end. I work across the entire stack: front-end interfaces, API design, cloud infrastructure, and the DevOps pipelines that hold it all together.
What I Build
My work ranges from autonomous trading platforms with multi-agent AI orchestration to enterprise automation tools processing sensitive government records. I've built collaborative finance apps with real-time bank sync, digital wallet integrations for Apple and Google, and serverless data pipelines on Azure. The common thread: systems that are secure by design and built to run without hand-holding.
How I Work
I care about the details that keep systems alive at 3 AM — proper encryption in transit and at rest, rate limiting that actually protects your API, audit logging you can trust, and infrastructure you can reproduce from code. I lean on Docker, Terraform, and CI/CD pipelines to make deployments boring and predictable. When it needs to be fast, I keep it simple.
PROJECTS
Autonomous Trading Platform
Fully-local quantitative trading system with a multi-agent AI orchestrator. Agents run FinBERT sentiment analysis, ML-based slippage prediction, and a weighted voting arbiter across four strategies — all behind a kill switch with human approval workflows. Includes an LLMOps framework with prompt registry, A/B testing, and budget governance.
Household Finance Platform
Collaborative personal finance app that auto-syncs bank transactions via mTLS client certificate authentication, runs AI-assisted categorization, and tracks shared expenses across households. Features a real-time bill-splitting tool — photograph a receipt, generate a QR code, and dining companions claim items live with automatic tip calculation.
Government Automation Suite
Enterprise automation tool for processing sensitive government records at scale. PII masking in the DOM before PDF capture, AES-256-CBC decryption of encrypted database fields, and YAML-driven workflow configuration with a two-way event bridge architecture. Built for compliance-heavy environments where data handling is non-negotiable.
Cyberpunk Terminal UI Framework
Rich terminal user interface built for headless server environments where browser access isn't an option. Full keyboard-driven navigation, real-time data streaming, and a retro-futuristic aesthetic — designed to make operators actually enjoy working in the terminal.
RAG Knowledge Chatbot
AI chatbot powered by retrieval-augmented generation over a custom knowledge base. Semantic search with pgvector, abuse prevention middleware for prompt injection, and a knowledge ingestion pipeline that indexes repositories into structured entries automatically. Answers complex domain questions with sourced context.
Digital Wallet Integration
Production-ready loyalty card system supporting both Apple Wallet and Google Wallet with RS256 JWT signing via service account keys. Built for resilience with graceful degradation on API failures, automatic retries with backoff, and a comprehensive security layer — rate limiting, XSS protection, and strict CORS policies throughout.
Serverless Data Pipeline
Azure Functions pipeline that ingests data from Microsoft Graph API, transforms XLSX to CSV, and delivers via SFTP — all authenticated through MSAL. Paired with a cross-language data flow that decodes PHP serialization through base64, XML, and JSON stages into MongoDB Atlas over TLS.
Modern Front-End Applications
Server-rendered React applications deployed on Vercel with CI/CD from push to production. Dynamic OG image generation, structured data for SEO, responsive design systems, and edge-optimized static generation. Built for performance — sub-second page loads, zero layout shift, and lighthouse scores in the high 90s.

Next.js
React framework with SSR/SSG
Next.js extends React with server-side rendering, static site generation, and the App Router architecture. It handles code splitting, API routes, and image optimization out of the box. The framework suits applications needing strong SEO and fast initial page loads.
Tailwind CSS
Utility-first CSS framework
Tailwind provides low-level utility classes applied directly in HTML rather than writing custom CSS. Its JIT compiler generates only the classes you use, keeping production bundles small. The constraint-based design system helps maintain visual consistency across projects.
Node.js
JavaScript runtime
Node.js runs JavaScript on servers using Chrome's V8 engine with an event-driven, non-blocking I/O model. The npm ecosystem provides packages for virtually any task. Node suits REST APIs, real-time services, and tooling scripts.
Express.js
Minimal Node.js framework
Express provides routing and middleware for Node.js without imposing structure. Its minimalist design means you choose your own templating, ORM, and authentication solutions. Most Node tutorials and packages assume Express compatibility.
Python
General-purpose programming
Python's readable syntax and extensive standard library make it popular for scripting, data science, and backend development. Frameworks like Django and FastAPI handle web applications while TensorFlow and PyTorch dominate machine learning. The language prioritizes developer productivity.
Flask
Lightweight Python framework
Flask provides routing and templating without dictating project structure. Extensions add functionality like database integration and authentication as needed. The microframework approach gives control over architecture decisions.
React Native
Cross-platform with React
React Native renders actual native UI components rather than web views, using React patterns familiar to web developers. Code sharing between iOS and Android reduces development time. Hot reloading speeds up the development cycle.
Flutter/Dart
Google's cross-platform SDK
Flutter uses its own rendering engine to draw UI consistently across iOS, Android, web, and desktop. The Dart language and hot reload provide quick iteration. Widget-based composition creates flexible layouts.
Push Notifications
Mobile push systems
Push notifications via FCM and APNs deliver messages to users even when apps are closed. Implementation requires handling tokens, payloads, and platform-specific behaviors. Proper targeting and frequency affect user retention.
PostgreSQL
Advanced open-source RDBMS
PostgreSQL offers ACID compliance, advanced indexing, JSONB columns, and full-text search. Extensions like PostGIS add geospatial capabilities and pgvector enables vector similarity search. It handles complex queries and large datasets reliably.
Supabase
Open-source Firebase alt
Supabase builds on PostgreSQL with auto-generated APIs, real-time subscriptions, authentication, and storage. The open-source model allows self-hosting while managed hosting handles infrastructure. SQL knowledge remains useful unlike pure NoSQL alternatives.
Vercel
Frontend cloud platform
Vercel deploys Next.js and other frameworks with preview URLs for each git branch. Edge functions run code close to users. The platform handles builds, CDN, and analytics without server management.
