About Me
From designing buildings to building software
From Skylines to Servers
For nearly five years, I shaped the physical world as a professional architect. I designed complex campuses and cultural centers, while balancing budgets, strict regulations, and diverse teams. It was fulfilling work, but I found myself increasingly drawn to the logic and speed of the digital tools we used.
I began to see that the principles behind great architecture, structural integrity, user-centric flow, and scalability, translate perfectly into software. The difference is efficiency: in code, ideas evolve in seconds, not years.
Pivotting to Computer Science wasn't starting over; it was refactoring my career. I brought my architectural rigor to the world of distributed systems. Now, instead of blueprints, I design system architectures. Instead of concrete and steel, I build with cloud infrastructure. The goal, however, remains unchanged: to create experiences built to last.
