Hi! I build software for finance and AI.

Origin story

Five years at J.P. Morgan turning business-user needs into production full-stack systems, first in Index Research, now in Portfolio Insights for Asset & Wealth Management.

I own features end to end, work closely with product owners and operations teams, mentor junior engineers, and keep production systems reliable.

Outside work, I build systems, frameworks and playgrounds that turn maths, markets and music into something you can touch. I learn new domains fast and ship end to end.
