About Me

I'm a web development tech lead with 7+ years of experience building scalable systems and guiding engineering teams. My core stack revolves around JavaScript—React, Next.js, NestJS, and TypeScript—but my focus goes beyond code. I care about setting clear technical direction, mentoring others, and ensuring systems align with real user needs.

I've worked across startups and larger companies, leading backend architecture, cloud deployments, and full-stack projects. Freelance work and ongoing studies in psychology have sharpened my ability to design with both logic and people in mind. I aim to build technology that's not only efficient, but empowering.

About 299

Inspired by Psycho-Pass, 299 represents a critical threshold in system design—where logic meets human intent. In intelligent systems, especially those dealing with evaluation or prediction, boundaries define outcomes. But these boundaries aren't neutral; they're shaped by the assumptions and values of the people who build them.

This number is a reminder that even within rigid frameworks, small decisions can preserve human agency. As we integrate more automation and data-driven logic into our lives, it becomes increasingly important to ask: are we reinforcing limitations, or enabling potential? 299 stands for the responsibility to design technology that doesn't just process people, but empowers them—balancing precision with perspective.
