About
I build web products with a focus on clear UI, maintainable frontend code, and practical product decisions. Most of my work sits between implementation, product thinking, and improving systems that people use every day.
I’ve worked on dashboards, workflows, internal tools, and customer-facing apps using Vue, Nuxt, Node.js, and related tooling. The goal is usually simple: ship something useful, keep it understandable, and make it easier to maintain.
Working principles
- Keep the UI clear before making it clever.
- Prefer simple solutions that are easy to maintain.
- Internal tools should be fast, predictable, and easy to read.
