About

I’m a backend-focused full-stack engineer with 4+ years of experience building scalable, high-performance web applications using Node.js, NestJS, React, and AWS. My expertise lies in designing robust APIs, microservices, and cloud-native architectures that help products scale seamlessly from MVP to enterprise level. At Cimpress, I’ve developed and maintained over 10 microservices, optimized complex backend workflows, and implemented internal tools that improved operational efficiency and reduced costs. On the frontend, I’m comfortable crafting responsive UIs with React and modern JS tooling, ensuring smooth integration with backend services. I’m passionate about clean code, automation, and performance optimization, and I enjoy mentoring peers to design maintainable systems. Currently, I’m open to collaborating on freelance or product engineering opportunities where I can contribute to backend development, cloud infrastructure, or full-stack architecture. Outside of work, I’m also an artist. I find that creativity helps me think beyond code when solving engineering challenges.
