I'm a software engineer with 8 years of experience.

My journey began with iogames.space, a web platform I built and scaled to over 2 million monthly users, kick-starting my passion for building and delivering quality software at scale.

Since then, I’ve architected, designed, and implemented 30+ software applications, with a focus on helping software developers discover great open source projects and level-up their skills.

As of 2023, my projects have collectively reached over 27 million users.

Here are a handful I’m most proud of:

• Architected, designed, and developed an email marketing SaaS platform with 15+ features including an advanced WYSIWYG editor, email performance analytics, embeddable sign-up forms, and more. (52x Grow)

• Independently developed and scaled a web application to over 2 million monthly users (iogames.space)

• Built the Theme Studio for VS Code - It reached #1 on Hacker News and continues to delight thousands of software developers each month. I replicated the entire VS Code interface with plain-old CSS (and lots of coffee).

• Helped over 3,000,000+ software engineers research and discover great open source resources through the various websites I've created.

• Trained hundreds of developers on advanced usage of VS Code through an online course, with an average 4.7 stars rating.
