I build software systems, simulations, and backend applications that explore how technical architecture interacts with real-world constraints, incentives, and human behavior.

• Backend Engineering — Java, Spring Boot, PostgreSQL, JWT authentication, REST APIs
• Systems Programming — C++20, multithreading, concurrency, performance optimization
• Simulation & Modeling — Multi-agent systems, trust dynamics, decision-making, emergent behavior
• System Design — Architecture, tradeoffs, scalability, reliability, and workflow design

Adaptive order execution engine featuring multithreaded execution, market impact modeling, volatility-aware strategies, and a measured 4.03× execution speedup. Designed to explore performance engineering and execution-system architecture.

A collection of behavioral and organizational simulations exploring trust, incentives, information asymmetry, credibility, and decision-making in complex systems.

Key simulations include:

• Hiring Simulator — asymmetric information and candidate evaluation
• Superego Simulator — cooperation, guilt, and social collapse dynamics
• Bernays Simulator — credibility, trust decay, and information propagation

Private repository — available upon request.

Quantitative finance project combining Black-Scholes option pricing with sentiment-adjusted valuation. Explores the relationship between intrinsic value, market perception, and pricing inefficiencies.
