About me

I'm a Backend & Full Stack Developer with 3+ years of professional and freelance experience in Laravel, Node.js, and the MERN stack. I specialize in building scalable, secure, and high-performance web applications that solve real-world problems with clean, efficient code.

I've developed and deployed projects like Smart Chokidar (housing society management app), a full-stack HR Management System, a Jewelry e-commerce platform, and maintained the Headway main website, optimizing APIs and fixing critical issues. My focus is on delivering robust, efficient, and user-friendly solutions tailored to client needs, while ensuring performance and scalability.

I graduated from L.D. College of Engineering, Ahmedabad (2020–2024). My goal is to create web applications and tools that not only work flawlessly but also make a real impact for businesses and users.
