What I Can Actually Do
I build software. The short list: Python for automation, data pipelines, and AI tooling. Ruby on Rails for web applications and APIs. SQL for everything that involves a database. JavaScript when the project calls for it, Node.js when it makes sense.
On the automation and integration side I have shipped production systems using Power Automate, UiPath, Selenium, Playwright, GitHub Actions, Docker, and ffmpeg. I have worked with AWS S3, the YouTube Data API, the Telegram Bot API, OpenAI Whisper, and HuggingFace models. If you need someone who can scrape a website, transcribe audio at scale, automate a workflow that was previously done by hand, or connect two systems that were never meant to talk to each other, this is the right profile.
The access control space is newer for me. I am currently learning the technical and operational side of how physical security systems work, specifically how software integrates with hardware in commercial and residential environments.
I Taught a Workshop at Google
In 2014 I led a hands-on workshop at Google where I walked a room of aspiring engineers through building a fully functional app in 45 minutes. The format was designed to take someone from zero to something working, fast. The goal was to lower the barrier and show people that building is not as hard as it looks when someone walks you through it.
I still own buildappin45mins.com. The concept has not expired.
I Am Not Just Technical
I am comfortable walking into a room where I do not know anyone and walking out with a follow-up. I can elevator pitch an idea in under a minute and hold the attention of people who hear pitches for a living. Advanced social environments do not intimidate me. If anything, they are where I am most effective.
If you are looking for someone who can sit at the technical table and also hold their own in the business conversation, that combination is here.
