I build mobile apps for a living — React Native, five-plus years, from trading floors to credit cards. I care about architecture the way drummers care about tempo: nobody notices when it's right, everybody suffers when it's wrong.

Before code, I taught English and led youth programs in the IDF's Education Corps. That's where I picked up the two skills no framework ships with: holding a room, and explaining hard things simply.

And when the laptop closes, the guitar opens. Shema — my songwriting app — exists because I needed it.

Code is a superpower. I use it to build things that matter.

I am a React Native developer with over five years of experience building scalable mobile and web applications.

My work focuses on building maintainable architectures, optimizing performance, and creating great user experiences.

Before transitioning to software development, I worked as an educator and served in the IDF, experiences that shaped my leadership and communication skills.

I believe that code is a superpower — and I use it to build things that matter.
