What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build elegant, high-performance web applications that integrate AI thoughtfully into real-world products. I value modern tech stacks, creative engineering challenges, and a collaborative team that cares about design, performance, and user experience.

Hi, I’m Kevin — a Senior Full-Stack Engineer who loves exploring the space between design, AI, and engineering.
Over the past decade, I’ve built frontend interfaces, AI-powered pipelines, and cloud-native applications that help teams turn complex ideas into simple, human-centered experiences.
I enjoy working with modern frameworks like React, Next.js, Node.js, LangChain, and FastAPI, and I’m always curious about how thoughtful design and smart systems can make technology feel more natural and kind.
