I turn shop-floor friction into working software.

Full-stack engineer in training, currently exploring AI and automation. I manage a gelato store by day and build the tools that store actually needed — the same instinct for noticing what's broken, now pointed at bigger problems.

A production tool for the store I run

As Store Manager at Gelato Messina, I kept seeing the same problem: knowing which flavours needed churning, how much stock was left, and when production should start meant constantly checking a phone or walking the floor. So I built a tool that shows it at a glance.

How I think

Three ideas I keep coming back to

01

Make complex things simple

A busy store floor doesn't need more data — it needs the right three numbers, visible fast.

02

Build useful things

I'd rather ship something small that removes a real friction than something impressive that nobody needed.

03

Stay curious about AI

Curiosity, not credentials, is what keeps you useful. I'd rather try things early.


Open to conversations about AI, automation, and practical software.
