What I'm looking for

I'm looking to build clean, scalable, user-centered applications with a collaborative engineering team where I can contribute across the full development lifecycle, improve workflows, and keep learning.

At Medome, I co-developed core features for a zero-to-one B2C product pivot, transforming legacy B2B infrastructure into a responsive consumer web application.

I build across React, TypeScript, Node.js, TailwindCSS, REST APIs, and data systems including PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, and Firebase. I’ve also delivered secure authentication, Stripe payments, Mailchimp automation, and Power BI metric pipelines.

I create reusable UI systems from Figma designs, documenting component libraries in Storybook and maintaining quality through Vitest, Jest, React Testing Library, and Playwright. Before Medome, I delivered end-to-end freelance websites for independent clients, from requirements and prototypes through deployment and optimisation.

My 10+ years of teaching help me communicate complex ideas clearly, collaborate across disciplines, and mentor others through challenging work. I bring a strong eye for UI/UX, visual consistency, and continuous improvement to distributed engineering teams.
