About

I'm a Senior Frontend Engineer with 5+ years of experience building enterprise web applications.

While my primary specialization is frontend development using React, TypeScript, and related frontend libraries, I’ve also worked across backend integrations, Node.js services, Azure Data Factory workflows, DevOps, and platform architecture based on project needs. I enjoy wearing multiple hats and contributing wherever needed to move products forward.

I’ve worked on scalable UI platforms, authentication systems, enterprise integrations, performance optimization, and modernization of legacy applications while leading cross-functional teams in large enterprise environments.

Currently, I’m building a GenAI-powered IRCC Express Entry application helper inspired by my own PR journey. The platform uses AI to analyze user-uploaded documents, generate structured Proof of Work/Education PDFs, combine and format supporting files, and automatically draft personalized Letters of Explanation to simplify the immigration application process.
