About
I focus on full-stack development with an emphasis on system-oriented thinking and real-world engineering constraints.
My work involves building applications end-to-end — from database schema design and authentication flows to frontend architecture and deployment.
I prioritize clarity, maintainability, and scalability over quick demos or surface-level features, preferring to design systems before implementing them in clean, readable code.
I care deeply about how software behaves in real-world conditions.

Engineering Mindset
- I design systems before writing code, focusing on clarity and long-term maintainability.
- I prefer simple, readable solutions over clever abstractions that are hard to debug.
- I think in terms of data flow, edge cases, and failure scenarios, not just happy paths.
- I write code assuming someone else will read and maintain it in the future.
- I value fundamentals and trade-offs more than chasing the latest frameworks.
