About Me

With over 13+ years of experience in product development and engineering leadership, I specialize in architecting high-scale web platforms and leading cross-functional teams to deliver exceptional user experiences. Currently leading the Dashboard Engineering team at SHIELD, I drive the architectural vision for fraud prevention interfaces, including the transition to Micro-Frontend architectures and enterprise-grade standards.

My approach combines deep technical expertise in the React and Next.js ecosystems with a strategic focus on product delivery and operational excellence. I am dedicated to fostering engineering cultures centered on continuous improvement, mentorship, and high-impact technical leadership. I bridge the gap between complex engineering challenges and seamless, scalable product solutions.
