Backend engineer in fintech, building high-load distributed systems. Off the clock, I write emulators and interpreters to learn how computers really work — mostly in Rust 🦀.
- Backend & distributed systems — designing services that stay correct, observable, and fast at scale.
- Systems & emulation — my favorite kind of problem: emulators, interpreters, and VMs, where every cycle and byte counts.
- Full-stack when it counts — comfortable from the database up to the UI, on the web or native.
Most of these started as "I wonder how this actually works…" and got out of hand:
- Game Boy Emulator — a Game Boy emulator focused on accuracy, performance, and modern enhancements.
- CHIP-8 Virtual Machine — a CHIP-8 / SCHIP / XO-CHIP VM with broad cross-variant compatibility, quirks support, and multiple frontends.
- Lua Interpreter — exploring language internals via a hand-written lexer, parser, and runtime.
- Web Browser — experimenting with embedding the Servo engine.
- PortMaster Contributions — ported several titles to handhelds using Lua and Bash.

🐧 Away from work code, I'm usually tinkering with Linux, messing with retro hardware, or coaxing classic games onto new devices. Emulation, open source, and old systems are my idea of a good time.
