Hello! I'm a highly motivated and solutions-driven Lead Frontend Engineer with over 10 years of professional experience, specializing in crafting responsive, high-performance user interfaces. My passion lies in bridging the gap between design, functionality, and inclusive accessibility, ensuring an exceptional user experience (UX) across all platforms.
Professionally, I excel in architectural strategy and mentorship. I act as a technical bridge between product and engineering, liaising with stakeholders, BAs, and Designers to assess code feasibility and usability. I take a lead role in partitioning complex requirements into actionable stories, ensuring the backlog is technically sound and optimized for team delivery.
I appreciate the collaborative synergy of group work, leveraging collective knowledge and support, yet I thrive equally when highly self-motivated to independently tackle complex problems. My enthusiasm for continuous learning fuels my proactive approach to seeking new opportunities for growth, such as my current deep-dive into cloud architecture.
Outside of work, my primary focus is on quality time with my two young sons. When I find free moments, I enjoy playing video games with my wife. Additionally, I also play Dungeons and Dragons with old school friends once a month, which is a great exercise in creative problem-solving and teamwork!
