Backend by trade, product by habit.
Eight years of backend engineering, from ingestion platforms to pricing engines and the APIs on top of them. Now I run The Flower Shop, a product studio where I ship my own consumer apps and build products for clients, ranging from frontend features to backend systems, and everything in between.
Data that shows up every morning.
I co-owned the Go ingestion platform behind Messari's APIs, research desk, and AI copilot. It pulled in thousands of documents a day from YouTube, GitHub, social, and news, each one a durable Temporal workflow, so retries and recovery came for free.
Pricing that can't be wrong.
I owned checkout pricing at Alto, a digital pharmacy. The insurance and discount math in Ruby on Rails has to be right before a patient confirms delivery in the React Native app, because a mistake delays someone's medication. The billing operations behind it were done by hand. Automating them removed over half a million dollars a year in cost.
Owning the stack, growth included.
At The Flower Shop, I own everything from the code to the growth. The consumer apps run on the Gemini API and Firebase, and an AI content pipeline I built markets them every day without me. Clients range from a publicly traded company to early-stage startups, where I've shipped frontend features and backends from the ground up.
