Software Engineer

About

I'm a full-stack engineer who bridges the gap between creative design and high-performance systems. I care about code quality, but I care more about shipping products that people love to use.

Currently, I lead development at MemoryShare, where I work across the entire stack - from Vue.js frontends to C# APIs, video rendering pipelines, and real-time features powered by SignalR (think live notifications and collaborative editing).

My background spans video processing (FFmpeg), perceptual hashing (finding similar images/videos), real-time communication tools, and game engine architecture. Whether it's integrating Stripe for payments or building custom ECS systems for game prototypes, I bring end-to-end ownership and attention to detail.
