About

I’m a Software Engineer at Google, currently working within the Android ecosystem. My journey started as a self-taught developer fascinated by how apps work, which quickly turned into a passion for crafting smooth, high-performance mobile experiences. Previously, I spent several formative years at BluSmart, where I grew from an Intern to leading the Android team. During my time there, I oversaw the architecture and delivery of multiple apps, driving best practices that improved both app performance and developer productivity. My technical core lies in Modern Android Development (MAD). I specialize in Jetpack Compose, Kotlin, MVVM, Coroutines, and modular architecture. I’m deeply passionate about writing clean, maintainable code and solving engineering problems at scale. Outside of code, I’m a passionate gamer - enjoying story-driven titles and open-world adventures to unwind and spark creativity. 📬 Let’s connect! I’m always happy to chat about Android tech, scaling mobile architecture, or the future of mobile development.
