United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a Senior Frontend Engineer with 9+ years building dynamic, user-centric web applications for high-traffic and enterprise environments.
My work focuses on frontend architecture, reusable component libraries, and performance optimization — I’ve improved load times and reduced bundle sizes across multiple projects.
I have hands-on experience with React, Angular, Vue, TypeScript, GraphQL, and Python, and I regularly apply UI/UX and accessibility best practices to deliver inclusive interfaces.
I thrive in agile teams, mentor junior engineers, and leverage cloud and DevOps tooling (AWS, Docker, Kubernetes) to ship scalable, production-ready solutions quickly.
