I've been writing software professionally since 2016. Over the years, I've worked on everything from small internal tools to large-scale enterprise platforms. If there's one principle that has stuck with me, it's that clear, thoughtful design is the foundation of any great system.

Lately, my focus has been on AI agents and serverless backends—essentially, building tools that can reason through problems and infrastructure that scales effortlessly. As a computer science graduate, my natural habitat is the terminal. I'm a heavy Linux user and a strong advocate for open source.

I also run Softiva, an independent app studio where I turn my own technical experiments into real products.

Beyond the screen, I'm a proud father to Natialie and Riana. These days, I spend a lot of my time exploring how agentic workflows can solve everyday engineering challenges.
