How I use AI in production workflows

  • Prototype faster — from idea to working code in hours, not days
  • Improve DX — generate types, tests, and documentation systematically
  • Automate repetitive tasks — boilerplate, migrations, refactors
  • Increase iteration speed — more experiments per sprint
  • Validate architectural decisions — explore tradeoffs before committing

How I Build Software

Performance First

Every millisecond matters. I measure Core Web Vitals, optimize critical rendering paths, and ship only what the user needs.

Accessibility Matters

Interfaces should work for everyone, not just the majority. Semantic HTML, ARIA, keyboard navigation — built in, not bolted on.

Reusable Systems

Components, not code. Systems, not scripts. I build design systems that scale across teams and products.

Ship Small

Small PRs, fast feedback, continuous delivery. Ship increments that users can touch, not features that sit in staging.

Measure Everything

If you can't measure it, you can't improve it. Lighthouse, analytics, error tracking — observability drives decisions.

AI as Amplifier

AI doesn't replace thinking. It accelerates execution. I integrate AI tools into workflows to ship faster with higher quality.
