About

Professional summary

I am a Senior Front-End Developer with more than 10 years of experience building large-scale web applications for hospitality, retail, financial, and property-management products.

I specialize in React, TypeScript, JavaScript, micro-frontends, and shared Design Systems. I have designed frontend architecture using Module Federation and monorepo approaches while delivering consistent, accessible user experiences.

I have full-stack experience with Node.js, Next.js, NestJS, React Native, and API integrations. I am comfortable maintaining legacy applications, delivering performance improvements, and resolving issues across both frontend and backend systems.

I apply modern engineering practices including TDD, BDD, Clean Code, CI/CD, Scrum, and Kanban. I have worked in AWS and GCP environments and used Docker, Jenkins, GitLab Registry, and Storybook to support reliable software delivery.

I have led frontend teams, mentored junior developers, contributed to hiring and diversity initiatives, and collaborated closely with product, design, and engineering stakeholders. I also leverage AI agents and prompt engineering to improve debugging and development workflows.
