Team Leadership: Co-founded the studio and led a small, cross-functional team of developers and designers. I guided our frontend delivery from initial client sketches all the way to production.
Frontend Focus: I built component-based frontends primarily using React, Vue.js, and Next.js. While my core expertise is in React and JavaScript frameworks, I built my personal portfolio using Jekyll.
End-to-End Product Delivery: Co-led the architecture of our in-house field operations platform, TaskBook. We built the frontend in Flutter, the backend in Python and Google Cloud, and used Firestore to handle real-time database syncing.
API Integrations: Connected our frontends to backend services, integrating APIs like Stripe for payments, Twilio for SMS, and Google Workspace for calendar syncing.
Process Improvement: Built internal tools, automation workflows, and drag-and-drop form builders that reduced our clients' manual data entry and scheduling time by up to 95%.
CMS Platforms: Shipped sites and built landing pages across WordPress, Webflow, Wix, Squarespace, and GoHighLevel to support marketing and client acquisition.
UI/UX & Brand Design: Created custom layouts, brand identities, and digital assets (white papers, company profiles, and promotional materials) for clients across 8+ industries, seamlessly bridging visual storytelling with technical execution.
– Software Engineer – Robotics & Systems
Virtana
System Architecture: Built and maintained robotics systems using a clear separation of concerns: Go for data flow, Python for backend logic, and C# (Unity) for the UI.
Operator UI: Designed and developed the calibration workflows and visual feedback systems. I focused on making complex camera alignment and spatial tracking data easy for non-technical operators to understand.
Engineering Habits: Wrote design documents, ran controlled experiments, and collaborated on code reviews using Gerrit to keep our production environment safe and traceable.
Python Automations: Supported the BizOps team by writing Python scripts to automate their manual invoicing and financial workflows.

Spatial Calibration: Calibrated cameras and pen tips, exploring intrinsics and extrinsics to estimate poses of AprilTags and dodecahedron objects.
Computer Vision: Used optical flow to accurately track the movement of AprilGroups in 3D space.
Data Visualization: Utilized PyQtGraph to render live graph drawings via tracked poses.
Engineering Standards: Worked within an Agile, Git-driven environment adhering to Google's style guide. (Github Link)
