Let's Work Together

Have a project in mind or just want to say hello? I'd love to hear from you.

I build web platforms and mobile apps that people actually use — from Telegram apps with 150K+ users to fleet dashboards tracking 50K+ fleets and published App Store products. Lately that includes LLM-powered features — another tool in the kit, not a pivot. I've spent 5+ years working remotely with teams across France, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan, and I'm happiest when I'm shipping something real. If you have an idea, a product, or a problem — let's talk.
