Software Systems Engineer 8 months into writing code. Built and shipped EZInvoice - a full-stack, local-first invoicing desktop app currently in private beta on the Microsoft Store(link available on request). Across my portfolio, I independently implement Clean Architecture featuring a fully isolated domain layer via imperative mapping with SQLAlchemy, explicit dependency inversion via zope.interface/zope.component, and native TypeScript interface ports on the frontend. I bring a special focus with 4,000+ hours of architectural blueprinting in Unreal Engine. My active projects include a transparent overlay UI for devs via Electron, as well as a Sentiment Analysis API using a custom tuned transformer(MPNet) and an 8-base mood Plutchik system via FastAPI.

Full-stack engineer focused on decoupled, scalable, and testable systems using Clean Architecture and SOLID principles. Recently built a full-stack implementation using dependency inversion via zope.interface/zope.component to maintain 100% domain purity. All inspired by Robert C Martin's philosophies.
