About Me

I'm a Frontend Developer with 5+ years of experience building and shipping production web applications using React.js and Next.js. I have experience working across the complete development lifecycle, from translating UI/UX designs into responsive, accessible interfaces to integrating APIs, optimizing performance and SEO, and setting up CI/CD deployments. I've worked on large-scale applications, including a 100+ page bilingual English-Hindi platform, booking systems, reusable UI components, and REST API integrations. I enjoy solving complex problems, learning new technologies, and building clean, scalable products that create real-world impact. I also have a strong foundation in Data Structures & Algorithms and am comfortable collaborating with designers, developers, and other stakeholders.
