01 — Profile

Engineer at the seams
of cloud, capital & AI.

From the trading floors of a $4 billion pension fund to the storage backbone of Amazon, I work where systems carry real weight. I've triaged 200,000+ vulnerabilities across thousands of servers, engineered statistical-arbitrage models clearing a Sharpe above 1.5, and shipped AI platforms that gave teams their hours back.

My work spans quantitative finance, machine learning, DevOps and full-stack engineering — and I operate best at the seams where they meet. I treat every system the same way: understand it, automate it, harden it, then leave it stronger than I found it.
