About Me

I spent my degree learning how spacecraft are designed and how they behave once they're in orbit — systems with zero room for getting it wrong. I never worked core aerospace professionally, but that way of thinking stuck: break down a complex system, figure out what actually matters, and ship something that works in the real world.

At Ohm Stock Brokers I took a trading platform from a blank page to a working MVP — research, spec, and hands-on testing, myself. Building Sit&Stay taught me the other side of that: writing the code, not just speccing it. Somewhere in between, I got pulled toward AI — not as a buzzword, but as the next system worth understanding deeply enough to build well. I've since built directly with the Claude API (tool use, function calling) and completed a full AI/LLM foundation, and I'm now looking for a home to apply that as an AI Product Manager.

Featured Work

Sit&Stay

September 2025 – December 2025

Problem

Pet boarding runs on trust — owners want to know their pet is okay, in real time, not just at drop-off and pickup.

Approach

Built a mobile-first marketing site (HTML/CSS, Claude-assisted) and a lightweight Flutter app UI across the core user flows — booking, availability, payment, post-service review — with consistent design tokens for a cohesive brand experience. Spec'd the platform's signature trust feature: a live camera feed so owners can check in on their pet in real time during the sit, backed by a Go backend for near-real-time status.

Outcome

Live at sitandstay.in.
