About

I’m a self-taught Android Engineer and Flutter Developer passionate about building elegant, high-performance, and user-focused mobile applications. My development journey began with curiosity and a love for creating interactive experiences — evolving into a strong foundation in Android (Kotlin, Jetpack Compose) and Flutter (Dart, GetX). Over the past few years, I’ve grown from experimenting with small projects to developing production-ready apps used by thousands of users. At YOUGotaGift, I work on delivering a seamless and scalable mobile experience using Jetpack Compose, Clean Architecture, and MVVM. I build robust and responsive apps with: - GraphQL & RESTful APIs for real-time communication - Room DB & DataStore for offline-first caching - WorkManager for background task reliability - Firebase Crashlytics & Sentry for stability and error monitoring - ExoPlayer & Lottie Animations for rich media and UI interactions - LeakCanary & SonarQube for performance optimization Previously at Creace Technologies, I developed cross-platform Flutter apps using GetX, Dio, and Sqflite, focusing on real-time updates, offline storage, localization, and responsive UI design. 💡 Core Skills & Tools: Kotlin | Flutter | Jetpack Compose | MVVM | Clean Architecture | GraphQL | REST (Retrofit) | Room DB | DataStore | WorkManager | Sentry | Firebase | LeakCanary | Lottie | ExoPlayer | GetX | Dart | AWS Amplify | CleverTap | Performance Tuning | Unit Testing 🚀 What Drives Me: I love turning creative ideas into real-world, performant mobile solutions. My focus is on writing clean, maintainable code, exploring modern Android and Flutter libraries, and continuously pushing my limits as a mobile engineer. I believe every feature should not only work well but also feel great for the user. 🌍 Beyond Code: Outside of development, I enjoy travel, photography, and personal branding — sharing my insights and experiences to inspire other self-taught developers through Medium articles on Android, Kotlin, and Jetpack Compose to grow with confidence. 📫 Let’s connect! Always open to opportunities, collaborations, and discussions around Android, Flutter, and innovative mobile experiences.
