About
My current work sits at the seam between commercial operations and software. The operations side is property management, corporate compliance, accounting — the kind of work that touches money, contracts, and regulators in equal measure. The software came because the tools available to operators kept falling short of what the work actually needed, and somewhere along the way I went from patching gaps with spreadsheets to building proper systems.
The work since has spanned a few different domains. I’ve built full property management platforms from scratch for operators running real portfolios. I’ve directed corporate operations for an international agency — cross-jurisdictional legal structuring, T2 corporate tax compliance, regulatory work across multiple entities. Through their DeFi client work, I’ve built Python trading scripts that interface with decentralized exchange APIs. And on the side, I built a Mandarin audio course generator that synthesizes Michel Thomas-style lessons from study notes via TTS, because nothing else did what I wanted.
I came up doing the operations and learned to write the code behind it. Most of what I build comes out of that order.
Node.js, PHP, Python, vanilla JS, Canvas, SQLite, MySQL, Postgres, Linux on the server. Adobe Suite (Photoshop, Premiere, After Effects) when projects need it. Not a framework purist — I’ll reach for React when it earns its place and avoid it when it doesn’t.
