About Me

I am a Full Stack Developer who pivoted from leading Data Science teams to building the very infrastructure that powers them. My journey has always been about bridging the gap between complex data and usable software.

At DataWars, I focus on the engineering behind the scenes—designing database schemas, building RESTful APIs, and creating robust backend systems. I specialize in using Python (Django/FastAPI) and JavaScript to create backend systems that are both robust and scalable.

Beyond the traditional stack, I'm exploring Web3 and blockchain, working to understand how decentralized applications intersect with AI.
