About

I’m a Full-Stack Software Engineer with 5+ years of experience turning complex problems into simple, scalable, and elegant web solutions. From building high-performance UIs at Walmart to crafting backend pipelines at JPMorgan Chase, I've had the privilege of engineering software that powers real-world impact. My toolkit? A blend of React, Python, Golang, Node.js, SQL, and cloud-native tech like AWS and Docker. I love clean design just as much as clean code, whether it’s optimizing page load times by 50%, rolling out self-service portals, or designing modern UIs from scratch with Figma. I thrive at the intersection of product, performance, and people collaborating across teams, pushing boundaries, and continuously learning. Whether it’s building from zero or refactoring legacy systems, I bring energy, structure, and curiosity to everything I touch. Let’s connect if you're into building for scale, designing for users, or simply geeking out over good code.
