About

Background

I am a Full Stack Software Engineer with over three years of experience architecting and scaling mobile and web platforms across React Native, Flutter, Next.js, and Spring Boot. My work has consistently focused on reducing system latency, modernizing legacy codebases, and designing microservice architectures that serve tens of thousands of users.

Beyond production-level engineering, I am deeply committed to advancing the discipline itself. I am actively pursuing a Ph.D. in Software Engineering with the goal of contributing original research and building a long-term career in academia — bridging the gap between theoretical rigor and practical systems design.

As an instructor, I have delivered courses on Flutter and React Native to over 200 students, mentoring the next generation of engineers in component-based architecture, state management, and modern API integration patterns.
