About Me
My love for tech started long before I wrote my first line of code. As a kid, I was the one taking apart TVs, staring at the rainbow reflections on compact discs, and wondering how everything worked. That curiosity followed me into high school, where I finally got my hands on a computer class. It felt like opening a door I always knew existed.
From there, I explored everything I could—hardware, networking, software, anything that let me understand how systems talk, connect, and come alive. But somewhere along the way, I realized I was most drawn to building things. Creating something out of nothing felt like the closest thing to magic.
So I chose software engineering.
Today, I work across the stack, from crafting smooth, responsive interfaces with React and Next.js, to designing reliable backend systems with Node.js, Express, FastAPI, SQL, and MongoDB, to building mobile apps with React Native. I love blending creativity with engineering, making things that look good, work well, and feel intuitive.
That same childhood curiosity still drives me, just with slightly fewer broken TVs.
