mechanical engineer software engineer

Started in mechanical engineering. Stayed for the software.

18 years turning hard problems into shipped software — from automating aircraft design at Boeing & Bombardier, to architecting enterprise cloud platforms, to building AI products end to end. Deep in C# & Azure, shipping indie apps on the side. Currently open to new roles.
