  Integrating 30 systems that didn’t talk to each other yet managed 4m orders/day, into a united view (we found 10,000 missing orders on various warehouse shelves).
  Building out a 10TB DWH for a $1trn/year exchange, and building a data team to go with it.
  Turning many, many daily hacked together scripts into live, correct tables (I found and fixed one that ran an unsecured, unmonitored lending program).
  Making reporting up to 1000x faster through simple query tweaks. You might not need that $100k/month “big data” setup.
  Architecting a market maker entirely made of PostgreSQL triggers that made markets on 6 pairs for the 180 days it took for the pros to come over with their C++.
  Setting up Mechanical Turk like labelling to reclassify an online shop’s entire catalog overnight for $400; we found 10% were misclassified (I could do this with, or for AI today).

After a stint running a startup and doing a lot of conference hand shaking, I am returning to my roots getting my hands dirty with data problems. Give me your gnarliest queries, your query planner nightmares, your long departed intern’s trail of duct tape, your favourite jazz standard, or let me build you a team and unfreeze your data customers.

Equally happy with consulting or full time work.

I’m a resourceful and reliable technology professional with over eight years of experience spanning applications development, IT operations, software engineering, and enterprise system support. I am a career technologist who believes that technology should deliver optimal experiences for end users while championing strategic goals for business. Whether I’m building clean, maintainable code, designing high-quality web applications, or troubleshooting system vulnerabilities, my focus is always on creating solutions that are scalable, efficient, and user-friendly.

I’ve built my career on a balance of technical depth and human connection. On the technical side, I thrive in environments where I can dive into code, analyze complex systems, and optimize processes. I’ve

succeeded in: - Reducing application latency from 30 seconds to under one second. - Maintaining more than 100 RESTful API endpoints. - Writing or updating over 500,000 lines of code that power everything from web applications to mobile platforms.

I’ve worked across industries and projects where adaptability and continuous learning were key. I’ve built expertise across cloud platforms (AWS, GCP), databases (MySQL, PostgreSQL), and frameworks (React, Node.js, Laravel, .NET, CodeIgniter, Express). I’m fluent in multiple programming languages, including JavaScript, Python, C#, HTML, CSS, and Typescript, and I’m comfortable navigating version control tools like Git and SourceTree. What excites me most is the challenge of problem-solving and the chance to deliver solutions that make a real difference for users and businesses alike.

I’m always experimenting with new programming techniques, sharpening my knowledge in full-stack development, and exploring ways to visualize data and optimize performance. For me, staying relevant in this industry means not only keeping up with the pace of change but staying curious enough to anticipate what’s next.

Colleagues have seen me as a collaborator and leader who’s approachable and friendly, yet willing to step up and guide a team with clarity and purpose. I take pride in fostering environments where people feel supported, where feedback flows openly, and where projects stay aligned to both technical best practices and organizational goals.

If you’re looking for someone who can bridge the gap between deep technical expertise and effective collaboration, while driving innovation and performance, I’d love to connect.
