About Me


I've been building Java applications since 2003, with production systems I created in 2012 still running and actively maintained today. I specialize in applications where security, data integrity, and long-term maintainability aren't optional: financial tools, document management, encryption systems, and enterprise data access.

What sets my work apart: I don't just ship products: I maintain them for years, iterating based on real-world use. My personal finance tool processes my actual transactions daily. My database client is something I use every day as a data steward. Everything in my portfolio solves problems I've personally experienced.

Project Delivery Pragmatic Project Delivery


I bring strategic judgment shaped by 20+ years of shipping real software. I know when to build custom solutions and when established tools like Atlassian JIRA make more sense, because I've made both decisions and learned from them.

My approach: clean, well-documented code that the next developer (or future you) can actually understand. Systems designed to evolve gracefully as requirements change. No over-engineering, no chasing trends. Just solid engineering that stands the test of time.
