About
Experienced developer, delivering fast and responsive UX with React and Next.js. One of the few who enjoys CSS! Comfortable working with Node.js/MongoDB, having integrated various services and APIs into the backend. Familiar with GA4 for analytics and Figma for design. I love working alongside my fellow devs as well as helping non-technical colleagues make decisions that are feasible in our stack.
