About
I'm a JavaScript engineer with 5+ years building secure, accessible, and compliance-focused web applications for government and enterprise clients. I work fluently across the stack — React frontend, Node.js and middle-layer integrations, UX mockups, and accessibility — wherever a product needs me.
Lately I'm embedded with a U.S. govtech platform serving 800+ state and local agencies: contributing to the team's PHP → React modernization, building full-stack features for multi-tenant deployments, designing UX mockups for new compliance flows, shipping WCAG 2.1 AA accessibility, and supporting frontend / mobile-compatibility work across product releases. Before that I shipped React, React Native, and Next.js features for enterprise clients in retail, food delivery, and internal tools.
When something matters to a real user, it matters to me.
Production experience across React, React Native, Next.js, Redux Toolkit, and React Query — from component design to state management to data layers.
Build end-to-end: React UI + Node.js / Express middle-layer connectors + REST APIs + PostgreSQL / MongoDB. Comfortable owning a feature from data layer to pixel.
Design complete user flow mockups for new features — covering edge cases, error states, and loading states — aligned with the existing design system.
WCAG 2.1 AA remediation across enterprise portals — focus management, ARIA, keyboard navigation, screen reader support, and color contrast at scale.
Migrating legacy PHP/HTML and jQuery codebases to modern React. Pragmatic and incremental — without halting feature development.
Active in agile ceremonies, technical interviews, and mentoring junior engineers. Comfortable bridging design, product, and engineering.

Featured Work
A selection of production systems and case studies from my engineering career.
End-to-end ownership of new features in a U.S. government revenue compliance suite — from UX mockups through React UI implementation and Node.js backend connectors integrating with REST APIs and PostgreSQL/MariaDB. Built configurable widgets that adapt per-tenant across multiple state and local deployments, with feature-flag gating for gradual rollouts.
A full-stack events platform with end-to-end ticket purchasing — Stripe-powered checkout, Clerk authentication, MongoDB persistence, file uploads via UploadThing, and React Hook Form + Zod for validation. Built on Next.js 14 with Server Actions, Tailwind CSS, and Shadcn UI. Production-deployed on Vercel.
A decentralized application on the Ethereum blockchain for managing peer-to-peer transactions. Smart contracts written in Solidity (Hardhat) and a React + Vite frontend with Ethers.js for chain interaction and Tailwind CSS for the UI. Tracks transaction events emitted by the contract in real time.
Accessibility remediation work on customer-facing portals of a SaaS serving 800+ state and local agencies. Shipped 20+ tickets covering focus management, ARIA roles & names, programmatic error identification, keyboard navigation, color contrast, and reflow — across registration, contact, FAQ, and self-service compliance flows.
