I thrive in fast-paced environments, driving projects forward with clear communication, technical direction, and a strong focus on user impact. My core stack includes React, Node.js, Astro, and Next.js, and I’ve led the development of AI- powered tools, SEO-optimized platforms, and revenue - driving B2B apps.I understand how to balance business goals with user needs, ensuring that every feature built adds measurable value.Beyond my full - time role, I also work as a freelancer, helping companies turn concepts into polished, production - ready software.If you're looking for someone who combines strong engineering fundamentals with product thinking—I can help you build what’s next.
