I have been building PHP applications since 2002. Much of my professional work centered around SugarCRM. I developed custom modules and extensions that supported client business processes such as invoicing, time tracking, production planning, and integrations with other systems. The core of the work involved translating how a company actually operates into software workflows.

I spend a lot of time building user interfaces for internal tools, dashboards, and hybrid mobile apps.

My interest in frontend development grew out of practical needs: Eventually you will need buttons and screens so people can use it. I came to JavaScript somewhat reluctantly but over time the tooling improved, browsers became more standardized, and I found myself enjoying frontendwork.

I work primarily on Linux systems and rely heavily on command line tools.

Over the years I built many small scripts and utilities for deployment, ETL tasks, and system monitoring. Simple tooling keeps systems understandable and easy to operate.

Occasionally I explore machine learning and OCR related ideas.

These experiments usually start from practical questions: filtering spam, extracting data from documents, or automating repetitive tasks.

I enjoy experimenting with these technologies and integrating them into software projects.
