About Me
I’m a dedicated React Software Engineer specializing in front-end web development. With a passion for crafting dynamic websites and web applications, I thrive on transforming innovative designs into seamless, user-friendly experiences. I love what I do!
As a front-end expert, I’m driven by the opportunity to bring a client’s vision to life through clean, efficient code. There’s nothing more rewarding than knowing users are engaging with a digital solution I’ve built from the ground up. My current focus is on developing robust features, resolving complex challenges, and delivering high-quality applications using React, while continuously honing my skills in modern web technologies.
Beyond the screen, I enjoy coaching my son’s baseball team, kicking a soccer ball around with our spirited mixed-breed dog, Dori, unwinding with my wife over a house-flipping show, or diving into late-night gaming sessions with friends.
