I'm a Product-Minded Senior Software Engineer & App Founder with 8+ years of experience and a portfolio of 10+ mobile and web applications.

I specialize in turning ideas into real products, covering the entire product lifecycle:

Concept & Design — turning ideas into intuitive user experiences.
Development & Launch — building and shipping scalable mobile and web applications.
Monetization & Growth — improving products, exploring business models, and driving continuous growth.

Core technologies: React Native, React, Next.js, and TypeScript.

I combine my engineering experience with AI-assisted development to build faster, experiment with new technologies, and work across different tech stacks.

I care about the entire product, not just the code: user experience, business models, scalability, and continuous improvement.

My goal: Build products that solve real problems and have the potential to grow into sustainable businesses.
