What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can build scalable, secure web applications end-to-end—owning both APIs and responsive UI—while collaborating in agile teams to troubleshoot issues, improve performance, and continuously learn.

I am a Full Stack PHP Web Developer with 10 years of experience designing, developing, and deploying dynamic web applications. I build scalable, secure, and efficient solutions using PHP and modern frameworks, and I work across both back-end and front-end technologies with a strong focus on maintainability and performance.

In recent roles at Baobab Web Services and Red Panda Software, I led and delivered full-stack PHP work with Laravel, Nodejs, MySQL, and React/NextJs, including building and consuming REST APIs and revamping applications to improve user experience. I collaborate in agile environments, mentor junior developers, and consistently troubleshoot and debug to ensure reliable delivery.
