Every journey has a starting point. This is mine.
I've been building software professionally for several years now, but I've never taken the time to document the journey. The wins, the failures, the lessons learned along the way. This blog is my attempt to change that.
why now?
There's something powerful about putting thoughts into words. It forces clarity. It creates accountability. And maybe, just maybe, it helps someone else who's walking a similar path.
I've learned that the best developers aren't just good at writing code – they're good at sharing knowledge, building communities, and helping others grow. This blog is my contribution to that tradition.
what to expect
I plan to write about the things I'm learning and the problems I'm solving. That might include:
- Technical deep-dives into e-commerce and web development
- Lessons learned from working on large-scale applications
- Thoughts on software architecture and design patterns
- Career reflections and growth experiences
- Tools and techniques that make development more enjoyable
I'm not trying to be the smartest person in the room. I'm just trying to be honest about what I'm learning and how I'm growing.
the journey ahead
Currently, I'm working on improving checkout experiences at New Balance, diving deep into Salesforce Commerce Cloud and PWAKit. There's so much to learn about building scalable e-commerce solutions that perform well and delight users.
I'm also passionate about domain-driven design and how it can help us build software that truly reflects the business problems we're solving. There's something beautiful about code that reads like the business domain it represents.
a personal note
Writing has never come naturally to me. I'm much more comfortable expressing ideas through code than through prose. But I believe that stepping outside our comfort zones is where growth happens.
So here I am, beginning this journey of sharing what I learn. Some posts might be technical tutorials. Others might be personal reflections. All of them will be honest attempts to document the path of a developer who's still figuring things out.
If you're reading this, thank you for joining me at the beginning. I hope something I share along the way proves useful to you.
Let's begin.
