Chapter 01

I Love to Build

I started my first internship at 16 and I never stopped shipping.

Today I work across banking, product, data, and infrastructure with the pace of a founder and the polish of someone who has already done the reps.

"Give me the hardest problem on the team. I'll ship it, document it, and make everyone around me faster."
