About Me

When I'm not architecting scalable data pipelines, you'll find me on the badminton court, at CrossFit, or with my mischievous cats.

My Philosophy

How I Think About Technology & Life

These are the principles that guide my work, my relationships, and my approach to solving complex problems.

Make the Impossible Intuitive

The best technology feels like magic - complex systems should dissolve into effortless experiences.

"True intelligence isn't about showing how smart you are, it's about making everyone else feel smarter."

People Over Process

Great engineering is about empowering people, not just optimizing algorithms.

"The most elegant code is worthless if it doesn't solve real human problems."

Bias Toward Action

Perfect is the enemy of good. Ship fast, learn faster, iterate relentlessly.

"I'd rather build something imperfect that helps people today than something perfect that helps no one."

Growth Through Challenge

The most rewarding problems are the ones that seem impossible at first glance.

"Comfort zones are where dreams go to die. I live in the space between 'this is hard' and 'this is impossible.'"
Beyond the Code

What Makes Me, Me

Engineering is just one part of who I am. Here's what fills my life outside of building systems and mentoring teams.

Badminton & Basketball

Fast-paced sports that keep me sharp and competitive. There's something about quick reflexes and strategic thinking that translates perfectly to engineering.

CrossFit & Weightlifting

Physical challenges that mirror mental ones. Every PR is a reminder that limits are meant to be broken.

My Mischievous Cats

They're basically furry chaos engineers who constantly test the limits of my home's 'system architecture.'

SF Bay Area Life

Living in the heart of tech innovation, surrounded by brilliant minds and endless opportunities to learn.

San Francisco Bay Area

When I'm not architecting data systems or mentoring engineers, you'll find me pushing my limits on the court, in the gym, or being outsmarted by my cats. I believe that diverse experiences make better engineers - the discipline from sports, the patience from pet ownership, and the energy from city life all contribute to how I approach complex technical challenges.
