Solutions Engineer & Full-Stack Developer

Projects

Products I design and build end to end, mostly through Agile-Flimflam, a small builders' collective I co-founded in 2021, plus the tools I've built on the job in banking technology. Most code is private; TelemetryTaco and this site are public. Open any project for the full case study.
