About Me.
I'm a full-stack developer based between Los Angeles, New York, and Dubai. I specialize in building exceptional digital experiences that combine thoughtful design with robust engineering.
Over the past 5 years, I've helped over 20 startups raise more than $500,000 in pre-seed funding by building their core products. I work across the entire stack—from pixel-perfect frontends to scalable backends—ensuring every project is built for growth.
I'm passionate about creating products that matter. Whether it's a startup MVP or an enterprise platform, I bring the same level of attention to detail and commitment to excellence to every project.
When I'm not coding, you can find me exploring new technologies, contributing to open source, or mentoring the next generation of developers.
