<about>
Frontend Developer
I build modern web applications using React, TypeScript, and Next.js, and most of that experience comes from working on real products where things actually need to feel fast and usable.
During my time at IntelliGlanceTech, I worked heavily on frontend features across multiple applications, which meant constantly thinking about responsiveness, usability, and how users interact with the system in real scenarios.
Over time, I’ve found myself paying more attention to how interfaces behave in practice rather than just how they look, especially when users are interacting with them repeatedly.
Backend Developer
On the backend, I’ve worked with Node.js, Express, and different databases like MongoDB and PostgreSQL while building and maintaining real systems.
At Lawgic, a lot of this work involved handling data pipelines and backend logic for AI driven features, where I also got hands on experience with Python and processing large document datasets.
Much of the work has been around dealing with performance issues, improving how data flows through the system, and making sure everything holds up as the product grows, which is something I’ve come to really enjoy.
AI Engineer
I moved into AI because it felt like a natural direction for where software is going, and I wanted to understand how to actually build with it rather than just use it.
That turned into hands on work at Lawgic, where I built RAG pipelines for legal documents and worked directly with LLMs, real data, and retrieval problems, which made things a lot more concrete.
I ended up taking that further during my MSc in Artificial Intelligence, focusing on practical systems, and now most of the work I enjoy sits somewhere between backend engineering and AI.

CitePDF
Reading PDFs in a browser is easy enough. Actually linking your UI to specific passages inside them is a very different problem. I ran into this while working at Lawgic, where we needed to add citations to legal documents. We could generate and display the citations themselves, but highlighting the exact text in the PDF and scrolling to it reliably was a different story. We looked around for existing solutions, but nothing really did what we needed, so we ended up compromising at the time.... Read more

AI Chatbot Assistant
This is the chatbot I built and integrated directly into my portfolio website. I originally started working on it when LLMs were just starting to blow up and tools like ChatGPT were everywhere. Like most people, I was experimenting and trying to understand how these systems worked, so I built an early version of this chatbot back then. It worked, but honestly, it wasn’t great it had a lot of issues, weak responses, and didn’t feel reliable.... Read more

Portfolio
This is my personal portfolio website the one you’re on right now. I built it as a space to properly showcase my work, but also to experiment a bit with design and interaction. I wanted it to feel more than just a static page, so I added a 3D hero section with a model that reacts to your mouse movement, giving it a subtle parallax effect and making the landing experience a bit more engaging....

CRYPTO WATCHER V2
This is the second version of my Crypto Watcher project. The original version was one of the first apps I built while learning web development, mainly focused on fetching data from the CoinGecko API and displaying it in a simple interface. It was a good learning experience at the time, but over time I could clearly see its limitations in both structure and overall quality.... Read more

ArticleDigest
Article Digest was one of my first attempts at building something closer to a real product rather than just a project. The idea was simple: you paste in a link to an article, and it uses AI to summarize it for you. I then extended it by adding translation support, so you could take that same article and read it in different languages. It was my first time properly exploring what people call a SaaS-style application, and trying to build something that felt genuinely useful.... Read more

INSTABANK
This was one of the first frontend heavy projects I built early on when I was learning web development. At the time, I was still figuring things out, so I started with a tutorial I found on YouTube and then began tweaking it to make it my own. I brought the design into Figma, played around with the layout, colors, and overall theme, and tried to move away from just copying something and instead understand how to shape it into something personal. It’s a purely frontend project, no backend or real functionality behind it, just focused on the UI.... Read more

CRYPTO WATCHER
This was one of my earlier projects when I was still learning web development and trying to get comfortable with the basics. A big part of it was just following tutorials, experimenting, and understanding how things actually work. For this project, I wanted to learn how to work with APIs, so I used the CoinGecko API to fetch real-time cryptocurrency data and display it in a simple interface.... Read more

Todo Tracker
This project was originally a hiring task I completed for IntelliGlanceTech, where the requirement was to build a basic CRUD application using the MERN stack. At the time, I was just getting into full stack development and learning how frontend and backend systems connect. I ended up enjoying the process quite a bit, so instead of keeping it minimal, I went a bit further than what was asked and expanded on it with additional features.... Read more
