Hello, curious one

AI engineer & full-stack generalist. Meet Vanguard, my tribute to the transforming robots I grew up with. Follow him, and I'll show you where it all began.

01Age 13 · a friend's PC

It started on a friend's computer.

I was thirteen, playing games on a friend's PC and wondering how any of it was made. Every website fascinated me. I had no computer of my own, just borrowed time on a Pentium III, a connection of barely 100 KB/s and very few places to learn from. So I decided to learn how to build websites and games myself.

02A generalist's toolkit

Not just code. Everything.

Design, marketing, SEO, 3D, mobile apps: I learned the basics of every field, then went deep where it mattered. Four crystals, four crafts I keep sharpening.

  • Agents, voice agents and automations that run in production, with approval gates, guardrails and evals.

    • Claude Code
    • LangGraph
    • MCP
    • RAG
    • Retell / Vapi
    • n8n / Make
  • Fast, tested foundations from database to interface, shipped clean and production-ready.

    • TypeScript
    • React
    • Next.js
    • Node.js
    • Python / FastAPI
    • PostgreSQL
  • Websites people enjoy and search engines find, from Figma to Shopify, WordPress and SEO.

    • Figma
    • WordPress
    • Shopify
    • SEO / GEO
    • Graphic design
  • The generalist's kit: 3D on the web, mobile apps and whatever the project needs next.

    • Three.js
    • Flutter
    • Android
    • Marketing

04How I navigate

Four stars I steer by.

When a project gets lost in the dark, these are the stars that bring it home.

  1. 01

    Stay curious

    I was, I am and I always will be a curious kid. Every project starts with wanting to know how things really work.

  2. 02

    Learn the whole map

    Code, design, marketing, SEO, 3D, mobile. Knowing the basics of every field lets me see the whole system, not just my corner of it.

  3. 03

    People hold the keys

    AI does the heavy lifting; people make the calls. The agents I ship come with approval gates, guardrails and tests.

  4. 04

    Done means working

    Give me any task and I'll get it done properly: planned, built, tested and shipped. Clean, working and ready for real users.
