About me...

A few tidbits:

  • I’ve been working as a front-end developer for the past 7 years, building products for both B2C and B2B.
  • My journey into coding started with a year and a half of self-learning. This time was filled with perseverance, frustration, and plenty of "What am I doing?" moments.
  • Professionally, I've worked extensively with React and its evolving ecosystem, from Redux and class components to hooks, TypeScript, and modern tooling like TanStack Query and Vite.
  • Web accessibility is something I care deeply about. With every project, I try to dig deeper and build things that are as inclusive and user-friendly as possible.
  • I also love branching out and experimenting. Lately, that means learning Rust and building NemCSS, an open source CSS tooling project built in Rust. And for the past three years, I’ve been using Vim and Neovim (editing this way makes me happy).
  • After being very lucky to live and work in Paris for the past 7 years, I will be starting a new chapter relocating to Toronto, Ontario in August 2026.
