Building Scalable Solutions
I'm a Fullstack Software Engineer based in Seoul, South Korea, with 3+ years of experience building scalable web applications. I specialize in React, Next.js, Java, and Python, working across both enterprise and startup environments.
I graduated Magna Cum Laude from George Mason University with a BS in Computer Science. My experience spans from building dashboard features at ScienceLogic to developing fullstack SaaS platforms with secure authentication systems.
I'm passionate about clean architecture, CI/CD automation, and building products that solve real problems. Whether it's designing RESTful APIs, containerizing services with Docker, or crafting responsive UIs, I focus on delivering high-quality, maintainable code.
