About
Head of Engineering and former long-time development agency owner (~10 years) pursuing CTO roles, with a strong 0-to-1 mindset focused on PMF/TAM and rapid MVP delivery. Led a 3-person team to design and ship a simplified website builder in one month (2023) that is now growing 10–15% YoY, and advocates for agentic AI/spec-driven development (BMAD principles, Claude Code) to help small teams move faster than traditional larger orgs.
