$ About Me
I'm a full-stack developer with a passion for creating elegant, efficient architecture for cloud native software. With expertise in modern web technologies, I specialize in building scalable applications that deliver exceptional user experiences.
My journey in software development began over a decade ago, and since then I've worked on diverse projects ranging from enterprise AI applications to fintech platform infrastructure. I believe in clean code, continuous learning, and the power of collaboration.
When I'm not coding, you can find me exploring new technologies, reading books on science and history, or sharing knowledge through technical writing and mentoring.
