How I went from building game worlds to building real products.
The beginning
I started by building worlds — literally.
Before the web, I made games in Unity. I spent my nights working on scenes, lighting, cameras and animation — and learned how lots of small parts come together to make one thing feel real. That way of thinking has stayed with me ever since.

Freelancing taught me to build for real people.
At Savimo I built websites for clients from start to finish, using React, Gatsby, Node and Firebase. Real deadlines and real users taught me what matters most: shipping work that actually holds up once people depend on it.
Scaling up
Then I moved from building pages to building platforms.
I spent three years at the startup Hivepath, helping ship full products from the ground up. I learned to think beyond single screens and build the systems behind them — the kind other people build on top of.
Building at scale
I built products people rely on.
At Dattam Labs I worked as a software engineer, building software used by real customers. A year and a half of shipping with a team, on systems that had to keep working once people depended on them every day.
