Custom ROMs, kernel work, device bring-ups, and HAL integrations. Where I learned how the layers actually fit together.

About

I started out flashing custom ROMs onto phones on XDA, which is a slow way to learn that every abstraction is hiding something. It taught me to read the layer below the one I was working in.

That habit is most of what I do now. I take products from an empty repository to something real people depend on — architecture, backend, mobile, and the servers it all runs on. I've done it for startups, for enterprises, and for government clients, where being wrong is expensive and the compliance review is not a formality.

I care about the parts users never consciously notice: the request that returns before they wonder if it will, the deploy that doesn't wake anyone, the interface that responds the instant it's touched. Get enough of those right and software stops feeling like software.

Outside of it: music, photography, and a standing commitment to finding the best food in whatever city I'm in.
