The operator

One engineer, 11+ years of production systems — relentless problem-solver who never stops until every issue is resolved.

v7.0

11+ years building things that don't break. I work at the intersection of WordPress engineering, browser extensions, cloud infrastructure, and performance — owning problems end to end, from architecture to deployment.

I'm a WordPress Core Contributor, Chrome Web Store extension author, and the kind of engineer who doesn't leave a problem unresolved. Give me a hard challenge and I'll stay at it until it's done — that's not a claim, it's how I'm built.
