How I Work

Pragmatism over Perfection

I focus on solutions that work in the real world, not just in theory. Shipping beats planning.

Clarity in Communication

Technical concepts explained simply. No jargon when plain language works.

Long-term Thinking

Quick wins are good, but I design for sustainability and maintainability.

Honest Assessment

If something won't work, I'll tell you. If AI isn't the answer, I'll say so.
