About Me
Hey there! 👋 I'm Mikul Gohil, a passionate Senior Frontend Engineer and AI Enthusiast based in Dubai, UAE 🇦🇪
I specialize in creating web experiences that are visually stunning, efficient, and user-friendly using modern technologies like React.js, Next.js, TypeScript, and Tailwind CSS. Currently working at Horizontal Digital, I've previously led frontend development at Emirates NBD and built innovative solutions across various industries.
I'm a strong advocate of the "never stop learning" mindset 🚀, always exploring new technologies and methodologies. When I'm not coding, I enjoy sharing knowledge through articles, tutorials, and mentoring fellow developers.
My mission is to create web applications that don't just meet expectations but exceed them ✨. I collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver projects on time, within budget, and with the highest quality standards.
