About me
I'm a mobile-focused full stack developer with more than 5 years building and modernizing apps, SaaS platforms and data-driven products. I work end to end: from the React Native and Expo app for iOS and Android to API architecture, data modeling, integrations, automated tests, CI/CD and store releases.
I've worked with offline-first apps, data sync, push notifications, deep links and native modules in Kotlin and Swift. I've modernized the app of an omnichannel contact center platform, the app of a field operations SaaS with more than 10,000 users and a sales tracking product that was later acquired.
