Problems I Solve

Slow or fragile systems that crash under load
Performance profiling and targeted stabilization — not a full rewrite
Business data siloed across disconnected systems and formats
Production-grade AI integrations that connect to your real data and workflows
Outdated frameworks and versions with security risks
Incremental upgrades that keep you running while closing vulnerabilities
Risky deployments that require crossing fingers
CI/CD pipelines and automated testing so every deploy is predictable
Systems no one fully understands anymore
Architecture documentation and knowledge transfer built into every engagement
Stalled migrations or failed rewrites
Phased modernization with working software at each step
