Artist · Creator · Software Engineer · Founder & CEO at Surkyl
Building software for independent artist, creators and the AI-native tools I use to build it.
I'm a full-stack engineer, music producer, artist, and founder.
After years of building enterprise platforms, I started Surkyl to give independent creators the tools, infrastructure, and reach that once required a label, studio, and marketing team.
I work across the whole product:
- Rust backends and native applications
- Angular, Astro, Svelte, and TypeScript frontends
- PostgreSQL, Redis, APIs, identity, and infrastructure
- Product design, delivery, pricing, and operations
- Music production and creator workflows
I build software because I need it, test it through real work, and ship it for people solving the same problems.
