What I'm looking for

I’m looking to build scalable, high-performance products in cross-functional teams—owning frontend architecture, mentoring others, and shipping accessible, responsive interfaces with strong engineering standards.

I’m a creative, results-driven Software Engineer focused on building scalable, high-performance applications and user-centric interfaces. I architect modern, responsive experiences with React, TypeScript, and design-system thinking, and I care deeply about code quality, maintainability, and performance.

Over the past few years, I led end-to-end frontend development across critical products—modernizing a public website, admin platform, and customer web app for Laferla Insurance, and spearheading multiple sports-focused applications at Afriskaut. I improved Lighthouse performance (from below 76 to over 90), delivered 100+ responsive UI screens, and implemented offline-first behavior with IndexedDB.

I also guided frontend strategy at CAD Consulting—moving from frontend ownership to effectively becoming the go-to frontend lead. From performance optimizations and modular architecture to CI/CD improvements on Microsoft Azure App Services, I’ve consistently shipped on timelines and mentored teams through rigorous reviews and knowledge sharing.
