Profile

I've been a computer engineer enthusiast about Web technologies for more than two decades. I began developing websites in 1999 and have since built strong expertise across the full web development stack. My experience spans database design, scalable back-end architecture, REST APIs, single-page applications, responsive user interfaces, administration panels, and performance optimization. I like to keep abreast of the latest technologies that relate to the web. I am very proactive with a great aptitude for problem solving.
