Who I am

I'm a frontend engineer who believes that great software is where technical precision meets human empathy. I build interfaces that don't just work — they feel effortless.

With a Master's in Computer Science from the Illinois Institute of Technology and 5+ years at product companies, I've led frontend teams, architected scalable e-commerce platforms, and shipped features used by people across multiple countries and languages.

My approach is collaborative — I work closely with designers, backend engineers, and stakeholders to turn ideas into intuitive products. Whether it's RTL language support for global accessibility or pixel-perfect Figma translations, the details always matter to me.

"I want to create applications that feel effortless for the people who use them, regardless of language, location, or device."
