What I'm looking for
I am a driven and versatile Full-Stack Engineer with over 8 years of experience designing and delivering scalable, high-performance web applications using React, Next.js, TypeScript, Node.js, Django, and Python. I focus on creating seamless digital experiences that balance speed, accessibility, and maintainability, and I have led front-end modernizations, built fundraising CRMs, and optimized backend workflows to measurably improve load times and user engagement.
