About
I’m a versatile full-stack developer passionate about turning complex ideas into clean, user-focused software. I specialize in designing and building scalable digital solutions that solve real business challenges and drive growth.
I’ve successfully developed and delivered several end-to-end projects, including:
Bakkit – A logistics SaaS platform for SMEs, featuring a Spring Boot + PostgreSQL backend and a React frontend, with box tracking, client management, automated reminders (SMS, WhatsApp, Email), and Excel bulk uploads.
MoodSpend – A cross-platform personal finance and emotion-tracking app built with Node.js, MySQL, React, and React Native, offering real-time expense tracking, mood analytics, and multi-company support with JWT authentication.
Apollo Proposals – An AI-powered RFP response generator built in Java with Spring and AWS, producing tailored proposals with strategic insights, team allocation, and cost breakdowns.
I combine technical expertise with a problem-solving mindset, delivering clean, maintainable code and impactful user experiences. Always open to exciting freelance collaborations.
