shipping at the edge.
I design and build performant web products end-to-end - from pixel-perfect UI to scalable APIs and the infrastructure under them.
01 — About
Engineer first. Designer by necessity.
I'm a Software Engineer Intern with a passion for building modern, scalable web applications. My happy place is the seam between great UX and a clean, type-safe backend — the kind of work where bringing a design to life feels as satisfying as optimizing a database query.
Currently, I'm gaining industry experience at ITMD, having recently graduated with my BSc in Software Engineering. I care about performance, clean code, and continuous learning.
