My Knowledge
C# and .NET Development
I specialize in C# and the .NET ecosystem, using it to build reliable backend systems, desktop applications, and server-side logic. What I appreciate most about .NET is its versatility—whether I’m developing a web application with Blazor, working on a Windows desktop solution, or crafting APIs, the framework provides powerful libraries and tools that streamline development. My focus has been on writing clean, maintainable code and designing systems that can scale.
Desktop Applications (WinForms)
I have hands-on experience building Windows desktop applications using WinForms. One of my notable projects is TransWind, an app designed to give users more control and privacy while screen sharing by allowing them to share only a selected portion of their screen. I packaged TransWind with MSIX and published it to the Microsoft Store, gaining experience in application signing, packaging, and distribution. Beyond this, I’ve built smaller desktop utilities that solve practical problems, focusing on usability and performance. While WinForms is a classic framework, I value it for its simplicity and reliability when creating straightforward, user-friendly applications.
APIs and System Integration
I specialize in designing and implementing APIs that serve as the backbone of modern applications. In my work, I have created APIs that expose business logic in a secure, scalable, and maintainable way, enabling systems to communicate seamlessly. Beyond building APIs, I have also integrated a wide range of third-party services into applications, extending their functionality and ensuring smooth interoperability. One example of this is my work with the OpenAI APIs, where I built a solution that allows businesses to interact with their own data while enhancing the experience through tool calls and real-time extensions. I view APIs not just as technical connectors, but as strategic enablers that unlock new possibilities for software.
SQL and Database Design
Working with Microsoft SQL Server has been a core part of my experience. I enjoy designing normalized database schemas, writing efficient queries, and tuning performance when datasets grow large. Beyond basic CRUD operations, I focus on stored procedures, indexing strategies, and ensuring data integrity. To me, a well-designed database is the backbone of any reliable application.
Python
I have used Python mainly for scripting and automation, where its simplicity and flexibility make it an excellent tool for handling repetitive tasks. Beyond scripting, I explored web development with Django by creating a website, which gave me hands-on experience with Python’s backend capabilities. I also built a Browser Tab Organizer desktop application using a Python GUI framework, and in another project, I developed a crawler to extract and process data from websites. While I would describe myself as an intermediate Python developer, I haven’t worked with it recently. Still, I value the language for its versatility and the broad range of possibilities it offers, from automation to full applications.
Blazor and ASP.NET Web Development
I have experience building modern web applications using Blazor and ASP.NET. With Blazor, I’ve been able to apply my C# skills on the frontend, creating interactive interfaces while keeping a unified codebase. On the backend, I’ve worked with ASP.NET to build web APIs and server-side applications that deliver reliable functionality. While my primary focus is backend development, my work with Blazor has given me a deeper understanding of the full-stack development process and how frontend and backend can come together to create cohesive solutions.
Web Technologies (HTML & CSS)
While my strength lies in backend development, I have practical experience with frontend technologies like HTML and CSS. I value the role of structure and styling in creating user-friendly applications, and I approach frontend work with an eye toward clarity and simplicity. My current goal is to sharpen my skills further to bridge the gap between backend and frontend, enabling me to work more comfortably across the full stack.
Software Architecture and Problem-Solving
I enjoy thinking about software at a higher level—how systems fit together, how data flows between components, and how to design for scalability and maintainability. Problem-solving is one of my strongest skills; I like breaking down complex issues into smaller, solvable steps and designing elegant solutions. This mindset has helped me both in professional projects and in personal side projects.
AI and Machine Learning Exploration
Artificial Intelligence is an area I’m actively exploring. My interest lies in how AI can extend the usefulness of applications, especially by integrating intelligent features into existing systems. I’ve experimented with OpenAI APIs to build solutions that allow businesses to interact with their data in more natural ways. While I’m not yet an AI specialist, I’m steadily learning and looking to deepen my knowledge in this field.
Continuous Learning
Technology never stands still, and I strongly believe in staying curious. I dedicate time each week to learning new concepts, whether it’s improving my frontend skills, diving deeper into .NET internals, or exploring emerging areas like AI/ML. For me, growth as a developer is a lifelong process, and every project is an opportunity to learn something new.
