What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative environment that values innovation and continuous learning.

I am a dedicated software developer with a strong focus on creating dynamic user interfaces and optimizing performance. My experience spans various roles, including Senior Front-end Developer at Boost Inc, where I led the development of a Vue.js vending machine management system, successfully refactoring it from Angular. I take pride in mentoring junior developers and collaborating closely with backend teams to design and integrate new API endpoints.

Previously, I worked as a Front-end Developer at InCrowd Sports Limited, where I played a pivotal role in migrating projects to Vue 3/Nuxt 3 for high-profile sports clients. My commitment to performance and accessibility improvements has been recognized, and I actively championed unit testing practices within my team. My journey in software development has also included full-stack development and data engineering roles, where I honed my skills in various programming languages and technologies.
