About Me

I'm a Software Developer based in London, dedicated to creating innovative and impactful solutions. My work is centered around developing full-stack web applications that make use of robust architecture and intuitive user experiences.

Currently, I work at MGTL, where I contribute to the development and maintenance of our core products, MYRIAD and CODUDE. This involves collaborating with the client operations team to develop plugins for automated invoice processing and implementing feature requests, ensuring our products align with client needs.

When I'm not coding, I enjoy spending quality time with friends and family, capturing moments with my camera, or planning my next travel escape.

Here are a few technologies I've recently been working with:

Java
coldfusion icon CFML
Python
Angular.js
React.js
Next.js
