Full-stack software engineer with expertise in Python (Django, Flask) and JavaScript (React.js, Node.js). Currently building scalable microservices and APIs while passionate about clean code architecture and modern development practices. Experienced in containerization with Docker, database design with PostgreSQL, and cloud deployment on Google Cloud Platform.

I specialize in building robust backend systems, developing RESTful APIs, and creating efficient development workflows. My repositories showcase practical solutions including Flask boilerplates, containerized services, and database optimization techniques. I enjoy contributing to open-source projects and sharing knowledge through well-documented code examples.
