01. About

I'm a Software Engineer with more than 12 years of experience building scalable web applications across the full stack. I specialize in frontend engineering with React and Next.js, with a proven track record delivering high-performance UI systems for media, e-commerce and digital-identity platforms.

My backend experience runs deep — Node.js, PHP (Laravel/Symfony) and Python — and I'm AWS-certified. Today I'm also focused on AI-powered applications, integrating local and cloud language models, and designing multi-agent systems that automate real business processes.

I also run Online Computing LLC, through which I deliver software engineering and technical support to clients.
