Founder & Senior Full-Stack Engineer
Building AI Products from 0 → 1
About Me
I’m a founder, CTO, and hands-on full-stack product engineer based in San Francisco. I build AI-assisted web and mobile products from initial architecture through production, customer adoption, and revenue.
My recent work includes PureFit Coach and PureFit, where I built systems spanning onboarding, payments, personalized programming, analytics, coach tools, and browser-based computer vision for movement analysis, repetition counting, and form feedback.
My core stack is JavaScript, Next.js, React, Node.js, MongoDB, AWS, and TensorFlow.js.
What I build
I build end-to-end production products:
- ● 0→1 AI-powered web and mobile applications
- ● Real-time computer vision and movement-analysis systems
- ● Full-stack SaaS workflows: onboarding, payments, dashboards, analytics
- ● AI-assisted personalization and recommendation systems
- ● AWS-based production infrastructure and deployment
Backend
I build APIs and services in Node.js / Express with MongoDB, hosted on AWS (EC2, S3, CloudFront). These backends power AI-driven workout engines, nutrition plans, and analytics dashboards.
Frontend
I use Next.js and React to build high-performance web apps and admin panels, including the PureFit AI studio software and Bewell’s online dietitian platform.
Mobile
I use React Native + Expo to deliver mobile coaching apps with real-time feedback and push-based habit support.
ML & AI
I work with TensorFlow.js and computer-vision frameworks (e.g. MediaPipe/BlazePose) to build real-time pose estimation, rep counting, range-of-motion tracking, and posture analysis for fitness and rehab use-cases.
Tech Stack
I work primarily with JavaScript in a MERN-style stack, plus AI and computer vision:
- ● AI & CV: TensorFlow.js, MediaPipe / BlazePose, custom pose and ROM analysis
- ● Web: Next.js, React, JavaScript, HTML, CSS
- ● Backend & Data: Node.js, Express, MongoDB, Mongoose
- ● Cloud: AWS (EC2, S3, CloudFront)
- ● Mobile: React Native, Expo
Product Engineering
I work across product architecture, UI/UX, analytics, experimentation, and technical implementation. As a founder-engineer, I’m comfortable turning ambiguous user problems into shipped product features and iterating directly from customer feedback.
Portfolio
I’ve built and launched multiple products including:
- ● PureFit Coach – AI-Assisted Personal Training Platform
- ● PureFit AI Coaching System – browser-based form and posture coaching
- ● Bewell – online dietitian platform and 35K+ install mobile app
- ● Fitness Hocam – holistic wellness platform (exercise, nutrition, psychology)
- ● Zone Club – Tech-Enabled Hybrid Training Platform
