About Me
I'm a frontend-heavy fullstack engineer passionate about building fast, scalable applications with great user experiences.
Recently, I've been exploring AI-powered development workflows — learning Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) and experimenting with tools like Cursor, which helped me build a production-ready car rental app (AddisWheels) in just 4 days (a project that would normally take months).
I also built EthioStartupAdvisor, an AI tool that helps Ethiopian entrepreneurs navigate startup challenges — a project that came alive while I was learning RAG.
My goal is to keep blending modern frontend engineering with AI-first productivity to deliver impactful products faster.
