Software Engineer specializing in building scalable, high-performance applications across the full stack. I work extensively with ASP.NET Core, C#, React, and Python to design systems that are not just functional, but efficient, maintainable, and built to last.
 
I enjoy solving complex problems—whether that’s optimizing backend performance, designing clean APIs, or creating seamless user experiences. My approach emphasizes clean architecture, thoughtful design, and delivering real business value.
 
I’m particularly interested in opportunities where I can drive impact through data-driven systems, distributed architectures, and user-focused products.
