A serious engineer who happens to have personality.
The stack doesn't stop at the database.
I’m an ambivert and an avid reader who genuinely enjoys learning, especially about programming and the web
I started on the frontend, got curious about what was behind the API, and never really stopped. Today I build full stack applications: React (Vite or Next.js) on the front, Node and Nest.js on the back, Postgres or MySQL underneath, and whatever glue the deploy needs
Because that’s the thing about building software: it constantly puts you next to systems you don’t fully understand. Most people work around them. I go and find out. Which is how a web developer ends up with a homelab, and how a homelab ends up making him a better web developer.
What I actually reach for, front to back. The stack is evidence, not identity — most of it is interchangeable and I would rather talk about the problem.
