My Technical Journey
My journey into web development began with curiosity and a passion for creating. I started learning HTML, CSS, and PHP while working for a small company alongside two other developers, getting my first taste of building for the web. After a break from tech, I spent time building and managing websites using WordPress, which taught me a lot about client needs and practical web solutions.
Eventually, I wanted to get back to the freedom of coding from scratch without constraints. I first explored Python for writing scripts and automation, then discovered React and Node.js for creating complete web and mobile applications. That's when everything clicked. I built MuscleQuest, a full-featured workout tracking app with React Native that's now live on the Play Store, along with various other projects that helped me master the modern JavaScript ecosystem.
Today, I specialize in building fast, beautiful web applications with React, TypeScript, and Astro, mobile apps with React Native and Expo, and robust backends with Node.js and Express. I'm constantly learning and improving, driven by a genuine love for the craft and a commitment to delivering solutions that exceed expectations.

My Approach
The philosophy and values that guide how I work with clients.
Craft & Quality
I don't just build websites and apps—I craft digital experiences. Every project gets my personal attention, from the initial concept through to launch and beyond. Quality isn't just a goal; it's the standard.
Personal Touch on Every Project
When you work with crispdigital, you work directly with me. You'll never be handed off to junior developers or feel like just another ticket in the queue.
Collaboration & Flexibility
While I handle most projects personally, I collaborate with trusted specialists for larger contracts or when specific expertise is needed. This gives you the personalized service of a solo developer with the capability to scale when your project demands it.
Best of Both Worlds
Direct access to an experienced developer with the flexibility to bring in specialists when needed—ensuring your project gets exactly what it needs to succeed.
What Drives Me

Results-Focused
Every line of code and design decision is crafted with your business goals in mind. I build solutions that drive real results, not just pretty interfaces.
Direct Communication
You'll work directly with me throughout the project—no account managers or layers of bureaucracy. Just clear, honest communication and transparent collaboration.
Performance & Quality
I'm committed to delivering solutions that not only look great but perform exceptionally. Fast, secure, and maintainable—that's the standard for every project.
