What I'm looking for

I seek frontend roles where I can build accessible, performant Vue-based products, contribute to modular architecture, mentor juniors, and work in collaborative Agile teams with strong testing and CI/CD practices.

I am a detail-oriented Front End Developer with 3+ years of experience building responsive, scalable, and performant web interfaces using Vue.js (v3 Composition API), TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS.

I convert Figma designs into production-ready code, create reusable component systems, and implement localization to support multilingual experiences while maintaining accessible UI flows.

I have shipped micro-frontends serving millions of monthly users, improved Lighthouse performance by 30+ points, and reduced deployment time through CI/CD improvements.

I collaborate in Agile teams, mentor junior developers, and focus on modular architecture, testing (Vitest, Cypress), and measurable UX improvements.
