What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a frontend role where I can ship React/Next.js UI, integrate LLM/AI features, and collaborate in a Git-based workflow to deliver production-ready experiences with strong reliability and usability.

I’m a frontend developer focused on responsive, component-driven web applications—especially AI- and LLM-powered features—built with React, Next.js, and TypeScript.

I’ve shipped end-to-end projects that integrate large language models directly into production pipelines, including StoryForge (Groq/Llama 3.3 70B script + scene prompting with FFmpeg rendering) and CRM AI, where I layered OpenAI API features like automated meeting summaries, follow-up email drafts, and a customer Q&A chatbot.

I bring disciplined, deadline-driven execution from leading daily operations and managing a staff of five, and I carry that mindset into development. I also build practical full-stack experiences with REST API integration, Firebase/Firestore, and Stripe payments, and I use AI-assisted tools like GitHub Copilot and Claude Code daily to accelerate component creation and debugging.
