About me
Curious about me? Here you have it:
I'm a passionate Web Developer who specializes in full stack development using technologies like React, NodeJS, Express, and NextJS. I thrive on bringing the technical and visual aspects of digital products to life, with a strong focus on user experience, pixel-perfect design, and writing clear, readable, highly performant code.
Since beginning my journey as a web developer in 2023, I have grown and evolved by taking on new challenges and learning the latest technologies. I've built several full stack projects with real-world applications, including a kudo sharing app for workplaces and a real-time polling app for presentations and general use. I'm eager to create more cutting-edge web applications using modern technologies such as Next.js, TypeScript, TailwindCSS, PostgreSQL, and more.
I am very much a progressive thinker and enjoy working on products end to end, from ideation all the way to development.
When I'm not in full-on developer mode, you can find me hiking 🥾, spending time with my family 🧑🧑🧒🧒, or riding roller coasters 🎢. You can follow me on Linked In for tech-related insights and to see my projects in progress, or you can follow me on GitHub.
Finally, some quick bits about me.
