Summary

Driven by the urge for creative problem-solving, I ventured into technical design using CAD and SolidWorks during my studies in Mechanical Engineering. A hobby that soon branched out into freelance agreements, I tackled increasingly difficult projects, including designing auto components like an underarmour for an off-road car using AutoCAD and CNC machining. All these sharpened my eye for detail, client communication, and ability to translate conceptual models into viable designs.
Seeking a trajectory with more creative and technical potential, I transitioned into front-end web development. Applying my analytical background, I immersed myself in modern web technologies, studying frameworks like React.js, D3.js, and responsive design principles. I've developed interactive web applications and data visualizations, melding aesthetics and functionality to deliver intuitive interactions. My engineering background in mechanical design and switching to coding has provided me with a unique edge: the analytical aspect of engineering combined with front-end's creativity.
I utilize my versatile set of skills—ranging from CAD modeling to programming and data visualization—to develop solutions to intricate problems and produce effective digital solutions.
