About Me

It all started when I first tried to edit a website by clicking on inspect element. Later led to me building my first website using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. I slowly fell into a rabbit hole of learning new web technologies and going into the depths of software engineering.

Fast forward today, I'm a software engineer based in London, UK. My current role involves leading frontend development, building robust and innovative software solutions for Pollen Technologies - from intuitive customer landing pages, sophisticated internal dashboards and other tools to help the business grow.

When I'm not at the computer, I'm usually training at the gym, exploring new places with friends and indulging my culinary curiosity by going on a quest for food.
