Intern Developer

I’m a seasoned software developer with a side of film producer, blending two worlds where creativity meets technology. For over 15 years, I’ve worked on complex backend services, led teams through Agile transformations, and delivered products at scale for millions of users. My technical roots run deep—Python, Django, React, and TypeScript are just some of the tools in my toolkit—but my passion for storytelling has led me to explore film production and screenwriting in recent years.

Today, I serve as both a developer and VP, Head of Production, embracing the challenge of guiding projects from concept to theatrical release while leveraging the same project management, problem-solving, and collaborative skills that powered my tech career. Whether I’m coding a backend API or developing a script for the screen, my goal remains the same: to craft compelling experiences that resonate, inspire, and make a lasting impact.
