How you
actually work.

Tends to own ambiguous problems end-to-end rather than decomposing-then-delegatingGH-12. Pattern across three roles: arrives with a vague brief, ships a working v1 in days, then opens it up for collaboration once the shape is clear RES-04GH-07.

Bias toward narrow primitives over frameworks: chooses libraries (Postgres + small functions) over platforms (Firebase, prebuilt CRMs) consistently across personal projectsGH-01GH-04. Comfortable inverting that bias when the team is the constraint. Adopted Vercel + Supabase at GoKBase to ship fasterGH-MAIN.

High compression of feedback loops: avg 2.4d from problem-stated to deployable artifact across last 12 work itemsWORK-12.
