About Me

Hi, I'm Horatiu Lazea
I'm a Full-Stack Developer with a strong foundation in both frontend and backend technologies. I love building products that are not only functional but also a pleasure to use — clean interfaces backed by reliable, well-structured code.
My stack of choice is React / Next.js on the frontend and Node.js or Spring Boot on the backend, but I'm always exploring new tools and patterns. I care deeply about performance, code quality, and developer experience.
Currently open to full-time roles and interesting freelance projects.
