About

Software Consultant & System Architect

I consult with engineering teams on system design, architecture reviews, and scaling strategy. Over 17 years, I've designed and built production systems across fintech, e-commerce, SaaS, and edtech.

When I'm not consulting, I write about the architectural decisions that matter most: how distributed systems fail, how to design for resilience, and how AI is changing how we build software.
