Summary
4+ years across software development, server administration, networking and IT operations. I take products from requirements and UI/UX through development, QA and deployment, and I run the infrastructure that keeps them online. I use Claude Code and Claude Design to prototype faster and move from design to code sooner. Generated code still gets reviewed, debugged, secured and tested like any other code before it ships.
