Now

What I'm focused on at this point in time.

Last updated: June 2026

This is a /now page — a snapshot of where my attention is right now, not a résumé. It changes as I do.

What I’m building

  • Northstar — a production-grade service marketplace backend (NestJS, PostgreSQL, Redis, BullMQ).
  • PulseForge — a coaching and performance platform drawn from real domain experience.
  • This portfolio — treating it as a living product rather than a one-time build.

What I’m learning

  • Going deeper on distributed systems patterns — queues, idempotency, and failure modes.
  • Sharpening AWS and infrastructure-as-code fundamentals.
  • Writing more about engineering decisions, not just shipping them.

Current goals

  • Join a team where I can own systems end-to-end and learn from strong engineers.
  • Keep the gap between "what I can build" and "what I can explain clearly" as small as possible.
  • Stay consistent — small improvements, every week.
