Senior frontend engineer with 17+ years shipping web products for global brands. I specialize in React, Next.js and TypeScript, design systems, accessibility (WCAG 2.2) and Core Web Vitals, with Node.js on the back end. At Publicis Global Delivery (Publicis Sapient) I led the front-end architecture of a North American sports league's digital platform and built React component libraries adopted across 90 product squads.
