Frontend Developer

Software Developer | reactJs | JavaScript | Firebase | Tailwindcss | CSS | HTML | Creating engaging user experience, optimizing performance, and solving complex challenges.

I am a Software Engineer with strong skills in TypeScript, JavaScript, ReactJs, NextJs, Firebase, TailwindCSS, NodeJs, ExpressJs, and MongoDB.

One of my key achievements is developing a learning platform that helped solve student's academic challenges at my school. This platform reduced the cost of buying textbooks and handouts by making them available in PDF format, this made academic planning easier and improved student readiness.

I believe coding is a way to solve real-world problems and make a positive impact. As I look for new challenges, I’m committed to bringing a problem-solving mindset to any team I join. I’m passionate about creating solutions that improve people's lives.

Let’s not just build code, let’s build great experiences. I’m open to new opportunities and would love to connect and explore how we can work together to drive innovation in software engineering. I’m ready to make a lasting impact.
