About

I care most about systems that stay correct under load - pipelines that keep processing when a node drops, and architectures that scale without becoming unmanageable.

Currently, I am a Distributed Systems Engineer at Xponentium, focused on data intelligence - running scrapers and pipelines that ingest data at scale, digging through large volumes of logs to detect live signals and viewership, and generally turning raw, messy data into something a dashboard can trust. I also own the infrastructure that keeps all of it running day to day.

I have the most respect for code with clear, explicit invariants - fault-tolerant pipelines, backpressure that actually works, and dashboards that tell the truth under real traffic.

Right now, I am drawn to distributed systems, backend performance, LLM-integrated products, real-time infrastructure, and technical writing that makes complex systems easier to understand.
