Curiosity first
Programming is the hobby that became my work. Almost 30 projects so far, from a first dice game to a four-language shop that takes real payments, and each one taught me something new.
Available for developer roles
I work as a Full-Stack Developer
I build web apps from front to back: a four-language shop with Stripe payments, live quizzes and chats, an AI meal planner. TypeScript, Next.js, Node.js and Deno. Eighteen years of CNC programming taught me to read a spec properly and finish what I start.
From cutting wood with CNC machines to cutting code.
Programming is the hobby that became my work. Almost 30 projects so far, from a first dice game to a four-language shop that takes real payments, and each one taught me something new.
I build the whole thing: React, Next.js or Preact on the screen; Node.js, Deno, Express or PHP behind it; PostgreSQL, MongoDB, MySQL or SQLite for the data.
I like apps that answer back: weekly meal plans from the Claude API, book tips from OpenAI, chats that run live on Socket.IO or straight between browsers with WebRTC.
Every project gets a live demo, a clear README, light and dark themes and a layout that works on a phone. The bigger ones run tests and checks in CI before they ship.
Eighteen years as a CNC operator taught me to read specs carefully, debug patiently and respect deadlines. The same habits carry straight into code.
You'll find me reading, fishing, out in nature, or deep into a good series. Rest is part of the process.
“Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.”
The stack I use to take a project from idea to deployed.
Things I designed, built and shipped.
