What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters creativity and innovation, where I can contribute to impactful projects and grow my skills in a collaborative environment.

As a Front-End Engineer with 4 years of experience, I specialize in creating responsive, high-performance websites using technologies like Next.js, React, JavaScript, and TypeScript. My journey has led me to work on diverse projects, including the frontend production of Lenslyst.com, a SAAS platform for creatives, and a Google Drive-inspired cloud storage system. I thrive on solving complex technical challenges and am eager to bring my expertise to a dynamic Software Developer role.

My professional experience includes developing dynamic, reusable components that streamline development processes and enhance user engagement. At Lenslyst, I optimized performance, reducing load times by over 20%. I also spearheaded the design and development of BeaFit’s website, focusing on improving app performance and managing the company’s online presence. I am passionate about crafting seamless user experiences and continuously seek opportunities to innovate and improve.
