About

I’m a software developer specializing in AI + full-stack, building practical systems for SMEs—POS, payroll, inventory, e-commerce, and smart-device prototypes.

I graduated BS Information Technology (major in AI) and run ObraTech, where I deliver web apps, Arduino/ESP32 projects, and AI features that solve real problems.

Recent focus: Generative AI in developer workflows, computer vision for agriculture and assistive tech, and secure, containerized deployments.
