What I'm looking for

Looking for a remote, hybrid, or in-office role (front-end, full-stack, or back-end) where I can own features end-to-end, write clean C#/.NET + Angular/TypeScript code, and ship fast in a collaborative team. U.S.-based, ready to start immediately.

I am a full-stack .NET engineer with 4+ years of experience modernizing legacy enterprise applications at a Fortune 100 company, converting monolithic WinForms/XML systems into responsive Angular and REST/JSON architectures.

I delivered large improvements including recursive folder hierarchies for 500k+ documents, drag-and-drop file management that reduced user steps by ~70%, and performance optimizations that cut page loads from 12s to under 2s. I also integrated modern front-ends with legacy WinForms using CefSharp and automated deployments with Azure DevOps.

After a recent health-related hiatus, I have been sharpening skills on AI code-review and data-annotation platforms, mentoring junior developers, and seeking a full-time role where I can continue modernizing systems, improving performance, and contributing to CI/CD and cloud practices.
