I’m a Full Stack Software Engineer with 7+ years of experience building scalable web applications for both enterprise teams and fast-moving startups. I specialize in React, Next.js, and TypeScript, and I’ve worked across the stack with Node.js, PHP, and SQL-based systems to deliver reliable, maintainable features. I’ve also led and supported modernization efforts—migrating legacy systems into headless, cloud-ready architectures, redesigning APIs, and improving performance for better user and developer experiences. I’m comfortable working from greenfield builds through large-scale platform upgrades, and I like using AI-assisted development workflows (like Cursor, GitHub Copilot, and Claude Code) to improve delivery speed and code quality.
