Profile

Senior Full Stack Developer with 9+ years of experience, specialized in React/Next.js and Node.js. I architected the frontend of Côte d'Ivoire's #1 real estate marketplace, shipped 20+ web and mobile projects to production, and deployed Docker/Kubernetes infrastructure for high-availability environments. My dual web + game development background (4× award winner) gives me a rare edge: a 60fps standard for animations, real-time rendering expertise, and a UX-first approach to every interface I build.
