Hi, I’m Simona! I’m a senior frontend engineer with a strong focus on UI/UX and building delightful, engaging products. I love crafting intuitive and beautiful interfaces that make users smile. Over the years, I’ve helped shape frontend culture in tech teams, introduced design systems, and built internal tools that streamline collaboration between developers and designers.
My journey into tech wasn’t traditional: I started as a nurse before transitioning into software engineering through a coding bootcamp. This experience gave me a deep appreciation for learning efficiently, adapting quickly, and approaching problems with empathy.
Beyond coding, I’m passionate about mentoring and knowledge sharing. I know how challenging the journey into tech can be, and I want to help junior and aspiring developers grow their confidence, sharpen their frontend skills, and navigate their careers. Whether you need guidance on web development, UI/UX best practices, or career growth, I’m here to support you!
Let’s build something awesome together. 🚀
