I build production React and Next.js products, from CMS architecture to interactive frontend experiences.

At Publicis Sapient, I own end-to-end delivery for a Next.js application and Strapi CMS, including content modeling, migrations, shared UI packages, and quote-and-buy journeys.

I've architected a JSON-schema-driven form engine with Zod and React Hook Form, built reusable lead forms for insurance products, and implemented Kafka-based event handling for reliable downstream processing. I also shipped a Strapi content import/export CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions, validation, approval gates, and ECS-based execution.

At Realitiq, I built a React and Three.js virtual-tour editor that turns panoramic property photos into navigable spherical experiences, alongside an in-app Fabric.js image editor.

Previously, I migrated Romsoft's website from WordPress to Next.js, created Strapi plugins and reusable components, and migrated more than 350 blog posts. At Logarithmic Solutions, I built a Next.js, React, and Node.js website from scratch that cut load times by 60%.
