Indie Hacking

As an indie hacker, I believe in building fast, shipping early, and iterating based on feedback. I leverage AI tools to accelerate development while maintaining high quality standards. This approach allows me to focus on solving problems and creating value rather than getting bogged down in technical implementation details.
