With over a decade of experience in the web development industry, I have always been deeply passionate about the development side of things. I love exploring new technologies and creating interesting software projects that push the boundaries of what's possible.
In recent years, I have had the privilege of serving as a team lead, successfully managing multiple large-scale projects and helping my team to achieve their goals.
Additionally, I am an avid conference attendee, and have recently taken to the stage to speak on a variety of topics related to web development and emerging technologies.
