front end developer / creative problem solver
My name is Mohammad.
I bridge the gap between art, design, and technology — designing and building accessible, responsive websites with a focus on both visual clarity and technical execution.
As a developer, I work across multiple languages and frameworks, including React and tools such as React Redux, GraphQL, Gatsby, NextJS, and Sanity. I regularly build CMS-driven and headless architectures, and have extensive experience with Wordpress, creating custom themes, custom post types, and custom widgets.
I’ve worked with teams and clients across agencies, media, and cultural institutions — combining my background in art and design with thoughtful, scalable development.
Let’s work together!

Additional sections of the site behind a paywall will be released in early 2023.
