About

Architect & Builder

I am a Principal Full Stack Engineer specializing in architecting and deploying scalable web and mobile applications. I build end-to-end solutions using Next.js, React, React Native, and Node.js to deliver high-performance platforms across all devices.

My expertise spans the entire stack—from crafting responsive web interfaces and native mobile experiences to designing robust backend APIs (Node.js, Laravel) and architecting scalable cloud infrastructure (AWS, Docker, CI/CD). I thrive on solving complex scaling challenges, demonstrated by leading projects for platforms supporting ~0.5 million daily active users across web and mobile, achieving system uptimes of 99.9%.
