About Me

Software engineer with 5+ years of experience, specializing in mobile development with React Native and Expo.

My expertise spans React Native and Expo for mobile development, React and TypeScript for frontend interfaces, and Node.js, Express.js, and NestJS for backend services. This breadth allows me to own features end-to-end and deliver cohesive, production-ready solutions.

Currently at Virtuosway Software as a Senior Software Engineer, I architect and deliver end-to-end solutions — designing robust APIs, building responsive web interfaces, and developing cross-platform mobile apps — while collaborating closely with product and engineering teams to ship impactful products.
