I pick up new stacks fast, ship, and write down what happened.

The map has the range. OpenReel, Galen in production, or browse all work.

About

I’ve spent six years shipping production systems across stacks — React and TypeScript products, Python services, production ML with real stakes, and lately a native Rust video editor. A COVID diagnostics ensemble that read PCR curves in the browser had zero reported errors across a million-plus diagnoses. The through-line is getting productive in new things quickly, then shipping. The map above has all of it.

Currently building OpenReel, and interested in work where range and ramp-up speed matter more than a single job title.
