My Favorite Tools
My technical toolkit is centered around cutting-edge web technologies. I excel in building robust, scalable applications using React and Next.js, leveraging the power of TypeScript for type-safe code. With Tailwind CSS, I create sleek, responsive designs efficiently. My expertise extends to AWS services, enabling me to architect and deploy cloud-native solutions. From crafting dynamic user interfaces to implementing serverless backends, I bring a full-stack perspective to every project. These skills allow me to deliver high-performance, maintainable web applications that meet modern development standards and business needs.
