Hello!, Welcome to my space

I'm a frontend engineer with over 10 years of experience building pixel-perfect, SEO-friendly websites and enterprise web apps. I enjoy working with technologies like HTML5, SCSS, JavaScript, TypeScript, React, Next.js, and Angular. I care a lot about creating responsive, accessible, and clean user interfaces that have real impact. I love collaborating with product managers, designers, and backend engineers to bring ideas to life. I'm always looking for ways to improve things—whether it's refining the UI, cleaning up code, or streamlining how the team works. I'm curious by nature, quick to adapt to change, and always up for learning something new.
