SKILLS
Why founders hire me
Product MindsetI don't just implement specs — I ask why. I've owned products end-to-end and understand what makes features worth building.
Business ExperienceI've run a real business (Gatherloop), handling operations, finance, and marketing. That context shapes every technical decision I make.
Full-Stack OwnershipFrom database schema to pixel-perfect UI to CI/CD pipeline — I ship the whole thing.
Move Fast & IterateI've built and deployed real products under real constraints. I know how to ship fast without accumulating paralyzing debt.
Lead & MentorI've led engineering teams, run code reviews, and mentored juniors. I make teams better, not just codebases.
