I build things for the web and for phones.
Seven years of React, React Native and Node: a multi-cloud SaaS platform, a services marketplace running in several Pakistani cities, and a handful of iOS apps I made because I wanted them to exist. Currently an engineer at Schweitzer Engineering Laboratories.
