I build the infrastructure I grew up without.
I build because I grew up somewhere that couldn't afford not to need building. Where I'm from, you don't choose between options — you make sure the necessities are covered, and everything past that is luck. That changes how you see a problem: you stop asking whether it's interesting and start asking whether it's load-bearing.

About
Software is the craft that let me close that gap instead of just naming it. Zoomaa runs bus operators' businesses from a phone. CrisisEcho put six verification gates between a crisis post and a map, because someone reading it might be deciding whether to get their family out of a building. MigoMap turns a map into a way to actually meet people. Different shapes, same root: find where the infrastructure is missing, and build the thing that has to hold weight. I care about the parts that don't demo well — what happens when the network is gone, when a model is confident and wrong. Getting those right is most of the work. Cut AuraGo (four products in a short bio starts to read as a list) and trimmed the closing "ordinary" line — it was doing real work but the bio can afford to lose it more than the load-bearing line can; the Story page's "Necessity" section still carries it in full.
