Tools, Systems & Disciplines
I don't believe in fake percentage bars (“95% in Python”) or five-star skill ratings. Below is an honest breakdown of the technologies I ship to production daily, how I think about each layer, and where I add the most value.
Web & WordPress Architecture
Fast frontend interfaces, semantic markup, and reliable WordPress systems without plugin bloat.
- ›Next.js / ReactCoreApp router, SSR, server actions, dynamic pages
- ›TypeScriptCoreStrict typing, interface design, robust API models
- ›WordPress Block API & Theme DevCoreCustom blocks, PHP 8.3, REST API & headless setups
- ›Tailwind CSS & Modern CSSCoreGrid, flexbox, custom properties, responsive systems
- ›Performance & Core Web VitalsCoreAsset optimization, edge caching, DOM reduction
- ›PHP & BedrockModern WordPress directory architectures, Composer
- ›WooCommerce CustomizationCheckout flows, payment gateways, schema overrides
Software Engineering & Systems
Disciplined software principles, clean REST/GraphQL APIs, and maintainable application logic.
- ›System ArchitectureCoreModular separation of concerns, DRY patterns, microservices
- ›REST & API DesignCorePredictable endpoints, idempotency, structured JSON payloads
- ›Relational & NoSQL DatabasesCorePostgreSQL, MySQL, SQLite, query optimization
- ›Node.js & Express / NestJSBackend services, authentication, task queues
- ›Git Workflow & CI/CDCoreSemantic commits, automated linting, GitHub Actions

AI / ML & Computer Vision
Practical machine learning and computer vision pipelines built for edge devices and real world lighting.
- ›Computer Vision & OpenCVCoreImage preprocessing, edge filtering, ROI segmentation
- ›PyTorch & YOLOv8CoreObject detection, classification, transfer learning
- ›Edge Inference & TensorRTCoreModel quantization (INT8/FP16), Jetson optimization
- ›Scikit-LearnCoreClassical ML algorithms, random forests, regression, evaluation
- ›Data AugmentationAlbumentations, glare/shadow synthesis, real-world noise simulation
- ›LLM & Embedding IntegrationsAPI orchestration, prompt engineering, semantic search
Tools, Infrastructure & Craft
The daily workbench tools that keep deployments predictable and codebases tidy.
- ›Docker & ContainerizationCoreMulti-stage builds, local dev parity, docker-compose
- ›Linux & Bash / ZshCoreShell automation, log diagnosis, server maintenance
- ›Vercel & CloudflareCoreEdge routing, DNS, SSL, zero-downtime deployments
- ›Figma to CodeCoreTranslating designer intent into responsive, accessible code
- ›Postman & HTTP ClientsEndpoint testing, mock servers, automated checks
- ›VS Code & NeovimHigh-productivity editor setup with linting and keybindings
Frameworks come and go. Fundamentals endure.
I prioritize strong software engineering fundamentals: understanding how memory and CPU react to un-indexed SQL queries, respecting the DOM tree, keeping dependencies lean, and designing modular systems that remain pleasant to maintain long after launch day.
