About MeGif

I'm a Full Stack JavaScript developer with over 4 years of experience in web development, and a strong focus on frontend. I love building clean, accessible, and well-structured interfaces that provide a great experience for users. I care about details, code quality, and performance.

I currently work as a Full Stack Developer at Gorrion, where I help design, develop, and maintain modern web applications. I collaborate closely with designers, other developers, and product teams to turn ideas into working solutions. I also work on the company website, internal tools, and care deeply about DX and accessibility.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time in nature - hiking, running, and playing tennis or squash. I also like checking out new spots with good food and working on side projects.
