Hello! I’m a CTO / Technical Lead with 12 years of hands‑on experience building, scaling, and operating web systems end‑to‑end—turning real‑world needs into reliable, secure, high‑performance platforms teams can run with confidence. In recent years, I’ve focused on DevOps, security hardening, and web performance, delivering production‑grade systems across the full lifecycle—from architecture and automation to integrations, observability, and reliability—always with security, speed, and long‑term maintainability in mind. I’ve worked with teams and clients across the USA, Iran, Canada, China, Kuwait, and Germany. I also bring a strong brand/design background and have taught photography, graphic design, and SEO—experience that helps me bridge product, marketing, and engineering, align stakeholders, and lead teams toward outcomes that move the business.

About Me

My story

I’ve spent over a decade building and improving digital products and the systems behind them—across engineering, infrastructure, security, and performance. What drives me is taking complex, real‑world problems and turning them into scalable solutions that teams can maintain, trust, and evolve.

Over time, my role has grown from execution to leadership: setting technical direction, improving delivery and reliability, mentoring teams, and connecting engineering decisions to business outcomes. I bring a practical mix of technical depth and product/brand understanding, which helps me collaborate effectively across design, marketing, and operations.
