📝 About this page
This page is about me beyond the resume — how I think as an engineer, what I enjoy, and the books that shaped how I work. I hope it gives you a better sense of who I am.
💼 How I think about work
Career direction
- I want a career where I can exercise product, project, people and technical management
- So far my roles have leaned toward project and technical management; going forward I want to grow the product and people sides
- I want to build services that create entertainment experiences through video and audio — the kind of content people look forward to coming back to
Choosing technology
- I think less about the architecture itself and more about what I want tests to guarantee, and which structure best supports that
- I choose architectures that are easy for the next person on the team to work with
- On the frontend I usually reach for designs built around Flux-style thinking
- Testability matters more to me than having everything perfectly uniform
How I work
- I keep the scope of each change small enough that it can actually be verified
- I develop in small iterations to get feedback early
- I value collaboration and keep communication tight within the team
📱 Why I build mobile apps
- It is genuinely fun to see code I wrote or designed running in someone's hands
- Building apps that touch people's daily lives is what makes the work rewarding
