I started the way most people do. Picking up tools, following tutorials, shipping things that looked finished but did not hold up under real conditions. At some point I stopped trying to learn more things and started trying to understand fewer things better. That shift changed everything about how I build.

Day to day I work mostly in Next.js and TypeScript. Having strong opinions about how data moves through a system, how pages behave under real conditions, and how architecture decisions made early show up as problems later. I use Drizzle ORM,TanStack Query, Neon, Vercel AI SDK, and Upstash regularly enough that I can tell you exactly where each one gets annoying.

Outside the work I write about what I am building and running into on 𝕏. Not advice for the sake of sounding senior, just the things I actually wish I had read when I was stuck on something. If any of it lands for you, that is the point.

If you want to talk about something you are building, reach me on 𝕏 or by email.
