What I'm looking for

I am seeking hands-on roles building mobile and web frontends where I can improve usability, refactor legacy code, and deliver maintainable features within collaborative teams.

I am a frontend-focused software developer with hands-on experience building Android apps and web admin tools using Java, Kotlin, JavaScript, Vue.js, and Firebase. I have redesigned and refactored production features—such as a points calculator in Vue.js—streamlining user experience and removing several hundred lines of code, and implemented Android functionality including Bluetooth communication, localization automation with Python, and custom UI improvements.

I have worked across startups and agencies on mobile and web projects, delivered Android MVPs, integrated complex web features into mobile UIs, and managed office systems and payroll using Microsoft Office and QuickBooks. I bring pragmatic problem solving, a focus on usability, and a track record of shipping maintainable solutions that reduce user friction and developer overhead.
