Full-Stack Developer & Project Lead

About

Hey, I’m a full-stack developer who loves building clean, accessible, and pixel-perfect experiences—from slick frontends to solid backend systems. I really enjoy blending design with code to make things that not only look good but work great too.

I’m always down to collaborate—whether it’s a passion project, startup idea, or something you’re just testing out. If it’s cool, creative, or challenging, I’m in.
