Hello, I'm |👋
I'm a software engineer with 6 years of hands-on experience crafting high-quality tools, products, and backend systems. I'm deeply passionate about solving complex problems through clean code and thoughtful design. Over the years, I've launched several independent projects, collaborated across fast-paced engineering teams, and consistently pushed myself to learn, build, and scale. Whether it's internal platforms or user-facing features, I care about performance, clarity, and impact — and I bring that mindset to everything I create.
