About

A personal practice, not an agency.

I am a software engineer from Hong Kong with a background in Electronic and Computer Engineering. I enjoy translating complex operational needs into systems people can use with confidence.

My work includes .NET, TypeScript, React, Flutter, Go, Rust, relational and document databases, Docker, Kubernetes, and cloud platforms. The technology matters only when it makes the work clearer, faster, or easier to operate.

How I collaborate

I take on a limited number of consulting engagements where I can work directly with the people making decisions, from defining the problem to improving the finished system.
