About Me
From Inventing to Engineering
From a young age, I was fascinated by invention. I loved learning about people like Leonardo da Vinci, whose curiosity spanned art, technology, and science. That same passion led me to study electronics and technology, where I was introduced to programming and began developing small embedded systems.
From Hardware to Software
Working with microcontrollers and embedded systems gave me a strong foundation in architecture patterns and product development. As I gained more experience, I became increasingly interested in software engineering—particularly in mobile development. This transition felt natural, as it allowed me to combine my technical knowledge with my passion for building user-friendly products.
Bringing Ideas to Life with Mobile, Web & Cloud
Today, I specialize in mobile app development, working with Swift, SwiftUI, and UIKit for iOS, as well as Kotlin and Java for Android. I also have experience with Flutter for cross-platform applications.
Beyond mobile, I’ve expanded into full-stack development, using Laravel, Node.js, and React to build scalable web applications. I leverage AWS, Firebase, and GCP to design and deploy cloud-based solutions that power modern apps. My experience includes:
Building and integrating APIs using RESTful best practices
Deploying backend infrastructure with Docker & AWS Lambda
Implementing secure authentication & payment systems
My Approach
I believe that great software isn’t just about writing code—it’s about solving real-world problems. Whether it’s designing a user experience, optimizing performance, or bridging the gap between engineering and business needs, I enjoy bringing ideas from concept to reality.

Experience
With over six years of experience as a mobile engineer, I’ve worked on large, complex codebases, developing and maintaining apps used by hundreds of thousands of users. From architecting payment gateways and messaging systems to building seamless authentication flows, I take projects from concept to launch with a focus on scalability and performance.
I specialize in iOS development with Swift, SwiftUI, and UIKit, alongside Kotlin and Java for Android. For cross-platform development, I leverage Flutter to create dynamic, high-performance applications.
Beyond mobile, I have expertise in web and backend development, using Laravel, Node.js, and React to build robust APIs and web-based platforms. My experience with AWS, Firebase, and GCP allows me to design and deploy scalable cloud infrastructure that seamlessly integrates with mobile and web applications.
I follow RESTful API best practices to manage data efficiently and use tools like Docker, AWS Lambda, and Firebase Functions for backend automation. My workflow is optimized with Git, Gitflow, CI/CD pipelines, and Fastlane, ensuring smooth collaboration and continuous integration.
What sets me apart is my ability to bridge the gap between technical and non-technical teams. Whether explaining complex systems to stakeholders or collaborating with designers and engineers, I ensure that projects move forward smoothly and efficiently.
