Frontend Specialist · Full Stack Capable

Falak turning complex problems into clean, performant interfaces.

I build fast, accessible interfaces with React and Next.js, and wire them up to Node/Express APIs and MongoDB when the product needs a full stack. Most of my recent work leans frontend — component systems, motion, and state-heavy dashboards.
