🚀 About Me
I’ve been building software for nearly a decade, crafting solutions from fintech platforms to game jams. I enjoy architecting scalable APIs and fine-tuning performance, but I’m particularly excited about exploring how AI, and specifically Large Language Models (LLMs), can revolutionize software development and user experiences. I aim for systems that not only work well but are adaptable and intelligent.
When I’m not coding, you might catch me experimenting with AI tools, tackling algorithmic challenges, or exploring new tech stacks.
