Profile

Impact-driven engineer with a product mindset.

I am a Software Engineer interested in front-end and full stack roles. I am most comfortable working with Angular, Vue, Nuxt, Nest, JavaScript, and TypeScript, while staying open to new technologies.

I would like to work for a tech-first company that builds internal tools or has an interesting product and offers remote work.

I want to join a company where I can help drive projects to success and whose culture and values align with mine.

I look forward to using the skills and technologies I have learned to streamline solutions and make meaningful contributions.
