About me

I’m a backend-focused developer with strong expertise in Laravel and the broader PHP ecosystem. I specialize in building scalable web applications, RESTful APIs, and modern backend solutions using Laravel, MySQL, and tools like Livewire, InertiaJS, and Tailwind CSS. With fluency in PHP, JavaScript, and experience integrating frontend frameworks like Vue and React, I ensure smooth development of full-stack apps, SPAs, and complex systems. I’m also proficient in API development, Git, and tools like OpenAI’s ChatGPT API. I bring additional experience with Node.js, SQLite, and Docker, and have worked with cloud services like AWS. My workflow is rooted in clean, maintainable code and a solid understanding of backend architecture.
