I'm a creative developer who enjoys blending design with software engineering
As a creative developer, I find myself positioned between the realms of design and software engineering. I am not solely a software engineer, nor am I purely an artist. My satisfaction comes from the combination of these two disciplines, blending form and function seamlessly.
I build web applications with NextJS and React
Because of my background in design, and finance, I understand the aesthetic and business side to any project. While websites have to make good impressions on their visitors, they should also motivate them to action.
What I'm Good At
Full-Stack Development
I am skilled in both front-end and back-end development, and I have the ability to create comprehensive web applications from start to finish. My tools of choice are Next.js/React.
User-Centric Approach
The success of a website ultimately depends on how well it serves and engages its users, so I focus on creating intuitive and user-friendly interface.
Performance Optimization
I optimize web applications for speed, performance and SEO. They all have fast load times and an optimal performance across various devices and network conditions.

• You May Have Wondered •
Here are some common questions asked by potential employers. If you do not see your question here feel free to reach out.
What is your experience with Next.js?
I have been working with Next.js since version 10 was available with the pages router. Now I build all my projects with the latest verion 14, which utilizes the app router.
Can you explain your role in previous Next.js projects?
I have contributed to many Next.js projects, both large and small. I have desiged components, implemented server-side rendering, optimized performance, and integrated APIs.
What technologies do you use alongside Next.js?
I am proficient in other technologies such as React, Node.js, MongoDB, GraphQL, and many more.
How do you handle state management in Next.js applications?
Depending on the project/situation, I use the built in React features useState and useEffect. But if the state needs to be accessible accross the entire app, then I'll use libraries like Redux or Zustand. Sometimes I'll use the built in Context API.
Have you worked with Next.js for SEO optimization?
Yes, I have optimized many Next.js applications for SEO by implementing dynamic routing, meta tags, and structured data to improve search engine visibility.
