Curriculum Vitae

Software engineer specializing in frontend development, with backend capability when a project calls for it. Below is a complete, continuously current summary of my experience, skills, projects and credentials.

Profile

I'm a software engineer with a strong focus and passion for frontend engineering and interactive user experience.

My day-to-day work centers on React, Next.js, and TypeScript: clean component architecture, snappy mobile-first design, and accessible interfaces. At the same time, I understand how backend systems run and can design REST APIs, database schemas, and services with NestJS and PostgreSQL whenever a feature demands end-to-end delivery.
