About me

Passionate web developer with a background in Electrical Engineering. My journey into web development began when I helped create a solar power monitoring application at a startup. Inspired by this experience, I made the decision to transition from electrical engineering to web development and haven't looked back since. I am a driven and diligent problem-solver with a strong interest in continuous learning and self-improvement.

  Frontend Developer

  Worked on several key features in our web application built with Next.js. Recently, I've transitioned into a full-stack position where I've taken on the responsibility of developing the backend using the .NET framework. This shift has allowed me to take ownership of features from conception to deployment, having full control on the end-to-end functionality. I also led some initiatives to improve the overall performance and developer experience such as:
