About

Code to Production

Full Stack Developer with 3+ years of experience building and maintaining web applications with Laravel and the TALL stack.

Day to day that means custom CMS platforms, RESTful APIs, payment integrations, deployments, and the server work that keeps client websites stable and fast.

Lately I build alongside AI coding assistants like Claude Code and Codex, and MCP-based Figma workflows that turn designs into working code faster.

“Ship it, then make it better.”
