Chapter 01Origins
Somewhere between a first “Hello, World” and a ten-node distributed cluster, curiosity turned into a craft. I am a software engineer specializing in distributed systems, backend development, and full-stack engineering — fluent in Python, Kafka, Docker, Kubernetes, PostgreSQL, Flask, React, and the cloud-native tooling that holds it all together.
The plot so far: a distributed machine learning cluster built from scratch, production-ready chatbots, data extraction pipelines, and DNS security tools. With a graduate foundation in distributed and cloud systems from UIUC, I focus on building resilient, efficient, automated solutions — and on tackling the complex problems that make the best stories.
Every reliable system is a story of failures handled gracefully.

Four acts so far — each one a place that changed how I think about building software.
