About

As a self-taught software engineer, I have forged an exciting career path that has taken me from prestigious brands like J Crew to working on globally recognized video games such as the Grand Theft Auto series at Rockstar Games. Currently, I head UI/UX Development at Seeds Investor, a burgeoning fintech startup, where I harmonize code optimization, user-centric design, and business objectives to deliver top-notch digital experiences.

While my academic background in Psychology and Public Relations might seem unconventional in the tech world, it gives me a unique perspective on understanding user needs and communicating effectively within the industry. This, coupled with my personal interest in investing, has sparked projects like Turtto.com, an ETF comparison platform, and a Node.js script for automated investing in Prosper loans. These endeavors exemplify my ability to leverage technology for financial inclusivity and accessibility.

Away from the code, I recharge through a blend of sports, nature, and family time. Whether I'm shooting hoops, hiking in the great outdoors, or spending quality time with my pets and my beloved wife, Anna, these activities inspire and shape my holistic approach to software development. My journey is a testament to the limitless possibilities when passion, learning, and a unique perspective come together.
