What I'm looking for

I'm looking for a frontend developer role where I can work on meaningful products, collaborate with a smart and supportive team, and grow as a developer. I enjoy building clean, scalable UIs with React, Next.js, and TypeScript, and I'm especially passionate about user experience, performance, and design.

I'm a Frontend Developer driven by a passion for clean design and smooth user experiences. With hands-on experience in building real-world products like Circle, an AI-powered hiring platform at Samespace, I’ve developed scalable features using React, Tailwind CSS, and Framer Motion — all while collaborating closely with designers and backend engineers to bring ideas to life.

Recently, I've been diving deeper into Next.js and TypeScript, and I used that knowledge to build Dafolio — a customizable portfolio builder for developers. I used Dafolio to build this portfolio you're viewing. The project reflects my commitment to creating tools that are both practical and thoughtfully designed.

Outside of coding, I find balance in the gym — where discipline, focus, and growth mindset fuel both my fitness and frontend journey.
