What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role in a collaborative environment that fosters innovation and growth.

I am a dedicated Frontend Engineer with a strong focus on creating innovative web solutions that enhance user experience and drive engagement. Currently, I serve as a Founding Frontend Engineer at Proof-of-Skill Protocol, where I lead the development of an AI-powered proctored assignment system. My work involves integrating real-time task prompts and WebRTC monitoring to ensure secure assessments, while also building and scaling MVPs for various stakeholder platforms. My technical expertise in Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS has allowed me to develop a reusable UI component library that significantly reduces frontend development time and ensures design consistency.

Previously, I worked as a Software Engineer at Merkle, where I developed and optimized over 20 React-based applications, achieving a remarkable increase in conversion rates and a significant reduction in page load times. My experience also includes freelance work, where I designed SEO-optimized websites that improved site speed and boosted Google rankings. I am passionate about leveraging technology to create seamless online experiences and drive product success.
