What I'm looking for

I seek a dynamic role that fosters innovation and allows for professional growth.

I am a dedicated Frontend Developer with over 8 years of experience in the front-end ecosystem, focusing on building exceptional React applications for high-traffic services. My journey began in 2016, and since then, I have honed my skills in creating user-centric designs that not only meet but exceed stakeholder expectations. I thrive in environments that foster innovation and collaboration, and I am always eager to tackle new challenges.

Throughout my career, I have successfully migrated legacy systems to modern architectures, significantly improving performance and user experience. At Rainforest, I led a UI overhaul that integrated a custom-built React/Tailwind component library, which reduced feature development time by 50%. My experience at PagerDuty further solidified my expertise in full-stack development, where I enhanced user experience by 40% through optimized web pages and React components for an NFT marketplace. I am passionate about leveraging technology to create impactful solutions and drive business success.
