I'm a Senior Full-Stack Developer with 8+ years of experience building scalable web applications and APIs. I specialize in PHP and Laravel, with strong experience in React, Vue.js, and modern web technologies.

Over the years, I've worked with local and international teams, leading projects, mentoring developers, and contributing to everything from MVPs to enterprise applications.
