About me

I build with , engineer with , and ship with .

I'm an engineer working at the intersection of AI and markets. I build reasoning systems and tools that compress decades of macro and geopolitical signal into something a single operator can act on.

Anteroom Studio (founded 2019) is the home for that work — and ZAI is the long-running project I'm building inside it.

Clarity First

I simplify complexity and design systems that are easy to understand and maintain.

Performance

Fast, efficient, and reliable software that respects users and resources.

Craft & Detail

Clean code, thoughtful UI, and the small details that create lasting value.

Useful Systems

I build things that solve real problems and stay useful over time.

Tools I work with
  • Python
  • PostgreSQL
  • Next.js
  • React
  • TypeScript
  • Node.js
  • Tailwind CSS
  • Supabase

How I work

A focused, iterative process

  1. 01

    Research

    I understand the problem, users, and constraints. Define what success actually looks like.

  2. 02

    Design

    Map the system, data, and experiences. Keep it simple and intentional.

  3. 03

    Build

    Write clean, testable code. Build in layers. Ship in small, valuable increments.

  4. 04

    Refine

    Measure, learn, and improve. Iterate until it feels effortless.
