About Me
I am a Frontend Developer at Journey Better Business Group Inc., passionate about crafting scalable and sophisticated applications. While I have a strong command of the JavaScript/TypeScript ecosystem (React, Next.js), my expertise extends to backend development with Java (Spring Boot) and Python (Flask), utilizing robust database solutions like PostgreSQL and Supabase.
I hold a Bachelor's degree in Information Technology (2025). My approach to engineering is deeply self-directed; I leverage AI-augmented workflows and continuous learning resources to solve complex problems and accelerate development, ensuring I stay at the forefront of industry trends.
I believe great software requires great usability. My growing proficiency in UI/UX designand tools like Figma allows me to bridge the gap between technical functionality and intuitive user experiences.
Currently, I am expanding my technical horizons by diving into system-level programming with C and Go. This pursuit aims to deepen my understanding of low-level operations, memory management, and advanced Data Structures and Algorithms, enabling me to write more efficient and optimized code.
