Core Values

Impact First

Building technology that creates meaningful change in people's lives, not just impressive demos.

Simplicity

Complex problems deserve elegant, simple solutions that anyone can understand and use.

People-First

Technology should empower people, not replace them. Every solution starts with human needs.

Giving Back, Building Forward

I’ve always believed that sharing what we learn makes us better builders. Whether it’s helping students find clarity or reviewing resumes for early-career professionals, mentorship has been a grounding force throughout my journey.

I don’t claim to have all the answers—just a willingness to show up, listen, and simplify the complex. From one-on-one calls to community chats, I enjoy turning ideas into confidence, and reminding others (and myself) that growth is never a solo act.
