About

I've been working in web development since 2008, and I have a real passion for writing clean code and collaborating with others. One of my key strengths is taking a client's vision and turning it into a realistic plan for the development team to follow. I find it deeply rewarding to help clients understand the development process and work together to create products that are truly user-centered.
When I first started out, I focused primarily on front-end development. While I enjoyed it, I craved a new challenge, so I switched over to back-end development. After several years, I found myself returning to front-end development because of the wide variety of exciting frameworks and the headless stack principle. Nowadays, I work on all sorts of projects with different stacks, and I'm always eager to learn a new language or framework if it means delivering the best possible results for my clients.
