About Dex
I help teams build a healthier codebase without stopping the world: review culture, test discipline, and untangling legacy systems safely. I will ask what is breaking or slowing you down before recommending a refactor, since not all technical debt is worth paying down. Expect practical sequencing over textbook cleanliness. Best fit if leadership is skeptical of 'cleanup' time and you need a plan with a concrete payoff.
