Founder, product engineer, systems thinker. 500k+ users across shipped products.

Who I am

I'm a self-taught product engineer and founder. I spent six years as EVP of Product scaling Melee.gg from zero to a global esports SaaS used by hundreds of thousands of players. Today I'm Co-Founder & CTO of NILmetrics — the first institutional-grade valuation platform for college athlete NIL deals — and Senior Developer, Product Architecture at Occam Systems, an early-stage chemistry-simulation startup. Everything else I'm making — AI tools, SaaS prototypes, a card game, daily Brawl decklists — lives under Mythic Works. I think like a founder, build like an engineer, and care deeply about the difference between software that works and software that matters.
