Customer Obsession

Building for real people.

It’s about the person on the other side of the screen, not just the browser. To me, code is just a tool to make someone’s day a little easier. I sweat the technical details—like speed and accessibility—so the user gets a smooth, frustration-free experience every time.

Inclusive UI & Design

Bridging creative vision and engineering, I translate Figma designs into pixel-perfect interfaces strictly adhering to WCAG 2.1/AODA. From semantic HTML to micro-interactions, I ensure a seamless, inclusive experience for every user on any device.

Performance

I optimize for the user's time by targeting Core Web Vitals to achieve high Lighthouse scores. By prioritizing the Critical Rendering Path and utilizing strategies like intelligent code-splitting and asset optimization, I engineer zero-latency experiences that build user trust.

Scalable Architecture

Features change, but the system must hold. I leverage TypeScript and modular, component-driven patterns to build robust architectures. By prioritizing type safety and preventing technical debt upfront, I create environments where teams can ship rapidly without fear of breaking production.

Engineering Excellence

I elevate team velocity by combining mentorship with modern automation. Through rigorous code reviews, AI-enhanced workflows (GitHub Copilot), and robust CI/CD pipelines, I remove friction from the development cycle—ensuring we deliver stable, high-value software faster than ever.
