About

Architecting cost-efficient, high-performance distributed systems.

I am a Software Solution Architect and Graduate CS student at SUNY New Paltz with 3+ years of professional experience orchestrating mission-critical backend infrastructure. My engineering philosophy centers on Total Ownership—bridging the gap between server-side correctness and global edge delivery.

I am the creator of the Sunny Stack—a high-performance JAMstack hybrid architecture that achieves an 85% reduction in network overhead and $0/month operational costs in real-world production environments. I specialize in Java 21 / Spring Boot 3 services, Distributed Systems, and Automated Platform Engineering.

Whether building 100+ RESTful endpoints for enterprise transactional workflows or architecting ultra-fast static engines with Python, I prioritize three pillars: Correctness, Security, and Extreme Cost-Efficiency.

Currently, I serve as a Teaching Assistant for C/C++ and Data Structures, where I help the next generation of engineers navigate low-level system complexity while I continue to pioneer zero-maintenance modern architectures.

What I've Built

Full-stack applications, static websites, and product concepts — each demonstrating different aspects of my engineering range.

Digital Modernization
Little Ones Learning Center Logo

Little Ones Learning Center — Digital Modernization

Software Solution Architecture · Spring 2026

Architecting a custom **JAMstack hybrid solution** for a $501(c)(3)$ literacy non-profit, replacing an ad-heavy legacy WordPress site with an enterprise-grade Java 21/Spring Boot 3 backend and a high-performance Vanilla JS edge delivery system.

  • Architectural Shift: Completely decoupled the data layer using a RESTful Spring Boot API, achieving a **\$0/mo operational cost** for the organization.
  • Proprietary Engine: Developed a custom **Python-based SSG** to automate 100% of page generation from relational data, reducing maintenance labor by 95%.
  • Performance Engineering: Achieved an **85% reduction in network requests** (88+ down to 12) through asset pre-generation and sub-second lazy-loading logic.
  • Identity & Governance: Engineered a Token-based Admin Control Panel with a custom media library for autonomous client content management.

Aura — Understand Her Fully

Active Full-Stack Prototype · Spring 2026

A premium Spring Boot application designed to bridge the empathy gap using hormonal cycle data and environmental context. Features a high-fidelity "Organic SaaS" aesthetic with strictly modular CSS.

  • Interactive Couple Quiz: Multi-tier onboarding & real-time compatibility tally
  • Dockerized Cloud Deployment: Production-ready Spring Boot on Render & Koyeb
  • Social Invite System: Token-based partner syncing and animated SVG UI
  • Built with Spring Boot 3 & Java 21, mapped to PostgreSQL

Digital Modernization Services

I help organizations bridge the technical gap by architecting modern, high-performance replacements for aging legacy infrastructure.

🚀

Legacy Refactoring

Complete migration from slow, ad-heavy platforms (like legacy WordPress) to ultra-fast, "zero-framework" static architectures optimized for the global edge.

🔐

Secure Serverless Auth

Implementation of custom OAuth bridges and identity management using Cloudflare Workers or Node.js, eliminating the security risks of legacy PHP systems.

📝

Headless CMS Strategy

Empowering non-tech teams with professional Content Management Systems (Decap, Contentful) built on top of immutable, secure git-based backends.

📈

High-Throughput APIs

Designing scalable RESTful endpoints with Spring Boot and Java 21, focused on auditability, low latency, and strict correctness for transactional workflows.

Software Solutions Architecture

Community & Advocacy Support

A network of aligned organizations and portals established over 25 years ago by a single owner. I took over the maintenance and modernization of these live production websites to preserve their digital legacy, alongside designing new platforms for local mission-driven organizations.
