About me

I build full-stack web applications — from frontend interfaces to backend APIs and databases. My main work includes an enrollment system for a UK vocational education provider and contributing to an open-source project management platform at Ever Technologies.

I work in an Agile team, handle client communication, and take features from requirements through to production. I enjoy building clean, usable interfaces.

Fluent in Bulgarian and Turkish, conversational English (B1+).

How I Work with AI

AI is a tool in my stack — like any other. I know when to use it, when not to, and I own every line that gets shipped.

Claude Code (Opus 4.6)

My go-to in the terminal for reasoning through problems — exploring codebases, weighing trade-offs, and pressure-testing ideas before committing to an approach. It's a second perspective, not an autopilot.

Perplexity

For targeted research — comparing libraries, checking API behaviour, or getting straight answers from documentation without context-switching out of my workflow.

Accelerated Learning

AI helps me ramp up on new tools and concepts faster. But I still read the source, run experiments, and build real understanding — speed without depth is just technical debt waiting to happen.

My Approach

I delegate the routine — scaffolding, boilerplate, repetitive patterns — and focus my energy on design, edge cases, and code review. I treat AI output the same way I'd treat a colleague's PR: nothing merges without my sign-off.
