About Me

TD

I'm a senior full-stack engineer with 5+ years of experience building scalable web applications. Currently at viamedia.ai, where I architect and ship AI-powered advertising technology used by thousands of local businesses across the US.

My stack of choice: React / Next.js on the frontend, Node.js / Go on the backend, and PostgreSQL / Redis for data. I love integrating LLMs into products — turning language model capabilities into delightful real-world features.

Outside of work, I contribute to open source, write about engineering on my blog, and occasionally mentor junior developers. I believe in writing code that's not just functional, but maintainable, tested, and a pleasure to read.
