About

I'm a Full-Stack Software Developer with 15+ years of experience, specializing in React, TypeScript, and Web3 technologies. With a strong foundation in frontend development, I build decentralized applications (dApps), integrate smart contracts, and create intuitive user interfaces for DeFi platforms across Ethereum, Aeternity, and Cosmos ecosystems. I bridge traditional web development practices with blockchain innovation to deliver seamless user experiences in the decentralized world.
