Things I've made trying to put my dent in the universe.

A curated collection of tools, applications, and infrastructure projects showcasing my backend engineering and platform expertise. As a backend engineer, these applications feature robust, production-ready Rails APIs and infrastructure automation, while the frontend interfaces serve as functional demonstrations rather than polished user experiences (for now). All applications and APIs are deployed on a Kubernetes cluster and maintained through automation I've created.
