- Built reusable React and TypeScript components across the core product.
- Improved visual consistency and layout behaviour across key screens.
- Worked with cloud-backed integrations and production deployment.
Outcomes

- Helped a platform with real educational and wellbeing value.
- Sharpened my own work across frontend, testing, and infrastructure-adjacent tasks.
