Lead Fullstack Developer
Fullstack developer building scalable web applications with modern JavaScript and cloud infrastructure

About

I'm a fullstack developer with over 10 years of experience building web applications across the entire stack. Currently leading development at DevsData LLC, I've spent my career working with JavaScript ecosystems, from React frontends to Node.js backends, while managing everything from databases to deployment pipelines.

My work focuses on creating systems that can handle real-world complexity - whether that's building background job processors, implementing rate limiting, or setting up automated deployments. I enjoy the problem-solving aspect of development and finding the right balance between performance, maintainability, and user experience.
