Professional Experience

Learning beyond the classroom.

My journey isn't limited to coursework. Through internships, I learned how software is built in real teams, how products evolve, and how leadership matters just as much as technical skills.

Selected Projects

Building products, not just applications.

Each project helped me understand something deeper, from backend structure and databases to dashboards, user flows, and solving practical student problems.

01Case Study

Next.js · Node.js · Express · MongoDB

Full Stack Blog Platform

A publishing platform with separate user and admin experiences for creating, managing, and reading blogs.

Problem

Most blog projects stop at basic CRUD and do not focus enough on dashboard flow or admin/user separation.

Solution

Built separate interfaces, REST API integration, blog management, and rich text editing.

Outcome

Improved my understanding of full-stack architecture, database modeling, and admin dashboards.

TechShop Affiliate Platform

An affiliate-style product platform focused on structured product, category, and admin management.

Problem

Affiliate systems need more than product cards, they need clean organization and backend-driven workflows.

Solution

Created product management, category organization, admin dashboard, and backend connectivity.

Outcome

Strengthened my dashboard UI, backend integration, and database-driven product flow skills.
