## Executive Profile

I am a hands-on software architect and developer with 20 years of experience building products
across startups, big tech, and government. I understand product, manage teams, and build the actual technical foundations that drive business results.
At my core I belive that software is linguistics, and that the words we use and the principles of our communication
shape the architecture of our software.

My work has directly enabled major acquisitions by John Deere and Scopely, and secure
enterprise portals for the L.A. County government. Currently, I'm at Google shaping developer
platform strategy, combining deep engineering experience with modern, AI-assisted workflows to build and ship software fast.
