Los Angeles · Engineer @ FacewareTech
Hey, I'm Vlad — a design-oriented full-stack engineer in LA.
I build web services with TypeScript and React, native Apple apps with Swift and Objective-C, and backends with Node.js and Express. I love designing things and building systems.
When I'm not working, I'm probably out with my dogs, hunting for vintage games and manga in Little Tokyo, down by the beach, or playing my Switch. I read a lot.
