How I work

Engineering principles

  1. Proof over assertion

    Every claim on this page links to something a recruiter can verify in one click.

  2. End to end

    Web and mobile, frontend to backend — complete products, not fragments.

  3. The work is the hero

    Projects and writing lead. Presentation supports them; it never outranks them.

  4. Two languages, one standard

    English and Spanish receive the same care and the same quality bar.

Selected work

Projects

A working record of shipped products. Every project links to a live deployment and its source code so you can verify the work directly.
