As a seasoned Tech Lead, my professional journey has been anchored in a fusion of generalist computer science skills with a specialized focus on Product Engineering. With a relentless passion for innovation and collaboration, I have honed my expertise in navigating the intricate intersection between technology and product development.

My proficiency spans across the spectrum of software development, encompassing agile methodologies, full-stack development, and robust system architecture. Whether it's architecting scalable solutions, optimizing user experiences, or driving cross-functional collaboration, I am driven by a relentless pursuit of excellence in every facet of product engineering.
