## About Me

I am a Frontend Developer with over 6 years of experience delivering innovative web solutions for high-traffic applications. My expertise lies in using JavaScript to craft engaging and user-friendly web interfaces that enhance user experience. I have a strong background in collaborating with cross-functional teams and mentoring junior developers to elevate both technical skills and product quality.

Currently, I am working as a Frontend Engineer at Plus8Soft, where I contribute to Pepperstone’s trading platform by improving frontend handling of millions of live data points and enhancing state management to maintain stability during peak market hours. I enjoy working in diverse teams across Europe, Australia, and Central Asia to deploy UI enhancements and refine workflows for thousands of active trading clients.

Previously, I built UI and backend architecture from scratch at Proxeet, boosting dashboard speed and reducing workflow complexity, while also contributing to backend logic in Go. At Egnition in Warsaw, I enhanced Shopify automation apps, increasing sales by 20% for key clients. My role at GroupBWT involved directing front-end design for e-commerce and charity projects, improving lead generation and web accessibility for clients in the US and Europe.

I started my career at Askartec in Bishkek, where I optimized authorization logic for a major investment bank, significantly reducing load times and improving app performance. I also mentored interns and implemented automated testing to ensure software quality. Beyond work, I am passionate about empowering women in IT through volunteering, conducting workshops, and mentoring aspiring programmers.
