About

Here is a little background

I'm Jay, an AI-native product engineer in Los Angeles building AI-powered applications and agentic workflows from prototype to production. I use Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, and Google Antigravity in daily development to move faster, explore better implementation paths, and tighten feedback loops. My core stack includes React, Next.js, TypeScript, Go, Rust, and Python, with a focus on rapid prototyping, practical LLM integrations, and polished product experiences.
