## About

```text
At eko, I built the Gallery, an embeddable interactive video app that lets shoppers explore products through a continuous stream. I led its end-to-end rewrite in Svelte 5, cutting bundle size by over 80% and load times to under two seconds.

On eko’s platform, I led development of core features and designed and built the backend, including microservices, APIs, Kafka event streams, and a proprietary CRM that automated content delivery. I also built web applications from concept through production and mentored and onboarded developers.

Earlier at eko, I developed consumer iOS and Android apps in React Native, including custom native modules. At SAP Labs, I co-led a team building an enterprise automation platform and maintained and optimized a mature C++ product.
