About Me
Full Stack Developer
I build production-ready web applications using JavaScript across the stack. My projects show end-to-end experience with React on the frontend and Node/Express + MongoDB on the backend — implementing JWT authentication, role-based authorization, file/image uploads, and clean REST APIs. I prioritize simple, maintainable code and user-friendly interfaces (React, Redux Toolkit, React-Bootstrap), and I ship apps that are deployable and documented. I enjoy turning real problems into polished web products and iterating quickly from prototype to deployed app.
