127,000 peak viewers. One night. Zero crashes. I engineer bulletproof, TV-quality remote studios and live broadcast setups for premium brands, executives, and creators.
With 15 years in the trenches of live broadcasting, I’ve learned that a successful project isn't just about the bitrate; it’s about system resilience and user-friendly automation. I specialize in designing high-end, compact remote setups that deliver television-level quality with zero technical friction for the speaker.
Why corporate brands and high-ticket experts trust their projects to me:
- Elite Remote Studio Design: I design and optimize turnkey remote studios (Sony/Canon/PTZ cameras, Elgato Cam Link infrastructure, advanced lighting layout).
- Battle-Tested System Resilience: From directing global esports tournaments to producing 18-hour live broadcasts, I thrive in high-pressure environments where there is no "undo" button.
- The Hybrid Advantage: My background with an LL.M. degree and professional Mediator training means I bring an elite level of discipline, strategic communication, and project management to your launch. I manage the people and the pressure as effectively as I manage the gear.
- Industrial & Marketing Innovation: I’ve proven that "gaming" tech can sell real-world machinery, having engineered agricultural broadcast content that generated 100,000 views in 24 hours for major manufacturing plants.
What I deliver to your project:
- OBS Studio Architecture: Custom multi-scene design, flawless audio, and custom hardware encoding optimization.
- Stream Deck Automation: Fully mapped single-button triggers for seamless scene switching, lighting control, and audio management.
- The Studio Playbook: Every setup includes a step-by-step Technical Manual and checklist so your internal staff can run the studio perfectly every single time.
If you want a remote studio or live production that is rock-solid, visually elite, and built on a foundation of 15 years of honesty and technical mastery - let’s talk.

My engineering approach:
🎥 Low latency first
A video platform is only successful when users forget the technology exists. I optimize latency, buffering, synchronization, and reliability.
🔒 Security and compliance mindset
For healthcare and sensitive applications, I understand the importance of secure architecture, protected data handling, and HIPAA-oriented development practices.
⚙️ Full-stack ownership
I can handle the complete streaming lifecycle:
💠 Frontend video interfaces
💠 Backend APIs
💠 Media processing pipelines
💠 Streaming infrastructure
💠 Cloud deployment
💠 Performance optimization
Typical technologies I work with:

LiveKit, WebRTC, SIP/VoIP, Electron, AI, video, audio, real-time software development at scale. 600M+ AI call minutes a month (Nucleus). $10M+ ARR EdTech (BrainCert). Enterprise VMS surveillance for 50,000 users (VALT). 𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗣𝗥𝗗 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝘀, 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝗱𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘃𝗶𝗲𝘄 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗶𝘀𝘀𝘂𝗲 𝗿𝗼𝗼𝘁𝘀 𝗼𝗿 ~𝟱𝟬𝗵 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗹 - 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗼𝗻𝗲𝘀.
I'm the CEO of Fora Soft, and personally architect every project. You get an owner accountable for delivery and senior judgment from day one, not a junior learning WebRTC on your budget.
⚠️ DM or invite me - I respond within 2 hours.

I build AI-powered automation systems, RAG applications, full-stack AI SaaS products, and real-time WebRTC & FFmpeg media platforms using JavaScript, Python, Node.js, Next.js, React, Electron, OpenAI, Claude, and modern AI development tools.
If you need an AI app that connects to your data, automates workflows, processes video, audio, integrates with your existing SaaS tools, or turns manual operations into reliable software, I can help you design, build, and ship it.
𝐌𝐲 𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐨𝐧𝐠𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞:
• AI automation systems for business workflows, internal tools, CRMs, documents, reports, and data operations
• RAG applications using private documents, databases, PDFs, APIs, vector search, and LLMs
• Full-stack AI SaaS platforms using Next.js, React, Node.js, Python, FastAPI, PostgreSQL, Supabase, MongoDB, Redis, and APIs
• Claude, OpenAI, Gemini, Whisper, ElevenLabs, LangChain-style workflows, prompt pipelines, and AI-assisted product features
• WebRTC and LiveKit applications for video calling, voice chat, real-time communication, screen sharing, and recording
• FFmpeg pipelines for video processing, clipping, transcoding, streaming, audio extraction, thumbnails, and AI-powered media workflows
