Builder.
I'm a software engineer at Tesla in Austin. I read a lot — philosophy mostly, Stoics in particular. I follow baseball with an investment that probably isn't warranted. I cook. I build side projects. I'm the kind of person who goes unreasonably deep on things, and the things change often. This site is a window into what's currently in rotation.

Building the internal tools that help Tesla maintain equipment across six global factories — full-stack, at scale. I work across Go microservices, MySQL, Kubernetes, and Kafka day-to-day, with a focus on reliability and performance at millions of records. Increasingly, I lean on AI to accelerate how I build.
My first exposure to Tesla's scale — built features for the same factory tool I now own full-time, plus an API for forms and workflows used by 20,000+ people across the company.
Built booking and hotel tools for private aviation — a maps-based hotel visualization and a C# recommendation engine that improved search relevance for 1,000+ customers.
First real SWE internship — React frontend and Node.js APIs. Where I fell in love with full-stack.
