What I'm looking for

I seek full-time roles or internships on collaborative teams where I can build scalable MERN applications, improve performance, and grow technical skills.

I am a passionate MERN Stack developer with hands-on experience designing and building scalable, high-performance web applications using MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, and Node.js.

I specialize in creating intuitive user interfaces, RESTful APIs, and optimized backends, and I've reduced application load times by 40% and improved delivery rates by 30% through Agile practices.

I've delivered 3+ full-stack applications from concept to deployment, including projects with Stripe payment integration, multi-currency support, and responsive, mobile-first UIs that increased client efficiency by 20–30%.

I bring strong technical foundations, a collaborative mindset, and a focus on maintainable, modular code to help teams ship reliable products and continuously improve performance.
