Who am I

I'm a frontend developer with 5+ years building web applications across the automotive, banking, consulting, and digital entertainment industries. I'm currently at Pixent, owning frontend delivery for a customer-facing gaming platform, after shipping enterprise banking products at Deloitte for Maybank.

I turn design mockups into responsive, accessible, high-performing interfaces with React, Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind, and I'm comfortable owning the full frontend lifecycle: from proof-of-concept to production, reusable component libraries, and REST API integration.

Beyond the UI, I set up the workflow around it — GA4/GTM analytics funnels, pre-render (SSG/ISR) for performance and SEO, and pre-commit and CI gates that keep quality high. I lean on Git and AI-assisted tooling like Claude Code to move fast without cutting corners.

I care about code quality, clear collaboration, and continuous improvement. If you're looking for a frontend developer who ships reliable UI and communicates well, let's talk.
