At WONDERFALL SYSTEMS, I architected and built Project Venus, a Django REST Framework school management backend supporting student records, scheduling, fee management, payroll, and role-based access. I also developed its admin dashboard with React.js and Next.js.

Across fintech, fleet logistics, and e-commerce projects, I’ve built APIs and user interfaces with Python, .NET, and React. At RECURSIVE TECHNOLOGIES, I optimized PostgreSQL queries for reporting modules, cutting API response times by over 60%; I also bring secure development practices informed by my ISC2 Certified in Cybersecurity credential.
