About

I’m a software engineer who loves building scalable, production-grade web applications and enterprise systems. I work mainly with React, Next.js, TypeScript, and modern backend stacks, focusing on clean architecture, reliable APIs, and high-performance user experiences.

I’m also passionate about AI-powered developer tools and agentic workflows—using tools like Cursor and Claude Code to ship smarter features faster. Outside of regular development, I enjoy solving algorithms (500+ LeetCode problems) and turning complex requirements into working products in Agile teams.
