I'm a software engineer based in Richmond, VA with a passion for building scalable, real-time systems and full-stack applications. With a background in freelance graphic design, I bring an eye for detail, love for collaboration, and creative problem solving skills to deliver functional, well-designed applications.
My most recent project is Aurora, a real-time analytics platform for natural language queries and visualizations of Kafka streams with AI, ClickHouse, and Grafana.
I authored an in-depth technical case study covering the system architecture, performance optimizations, and engineering decisions behind Aurora, including comparisons between managed vs. self-hosted analytics solutions.

- I love traveling, with Japan being one of my favorite destinations. I've been there 10+ times, so if you need any recommendations let me know! 🍜
