About Me

I'm a passionate frontend-focused Full Stack Developer experienced in building scalable applications with Next.js, React.js, and MERN technologies. I create responsive, SEO-optimized interfaces using SSR, SSG, and ISR while integrating secure APIs and maintainable backend architecture.

I enjoy turning Figma designs into pixel-perfect products, optimizing performance with code splitting and image optimization, and delivering clean, reusable component systems backed by reliable data flows.
