After being impacted by Google's layoff in 2023, I decided to deepen my technical skills, initially to become a better technical recruiter. However, as I delved deeper, I was fascinated by how much could be accomplished with just a single line of code. This passion led me to build my first personal project: an Instagram clone for coffee enthusiasts.
After scaling teams at Aerotek, Rocket, and Google, I now bring that same dedication and passion to software engineering. Today, my focus is on frontend development, driven by a deep commitment to user experience. I approach crafting intuitive and engaging interfaces with the same care and attention I once prioritized for candidate experience.

DSA Visualizer(currently polishing and refactoring)
As a visual learner, I found that most DSA tools were cluttered and didn’t clearly explain why algorithms behave the way they do. This led me to build a minimalistic and beginner-friendly(as friendly as I can make it) DSA Visualizer that focuses on intuition and algorithmic reasoning. Built with React and TypeScript, the platform shows how different algorithms operate through side-by-side comparisons. For example, users can compare linear search vs. binary search on the same dataset to see how algorithmic efficiency impacts performance. The system uses a modular architecture: each visualizer includes a dedicated engine (algorithm logic) and wrapper (UI orchestration), ensuring clean separation of concerns and making it easy to scale with additional algorithms and data structures.
