About Me

I am a passionate and dedicated software engineer whose journey began with a childhood fascination for dismantling gadgets and exploring computer systems. Over the years, I have transformed that early curiosity into a robust career in software development.

My diverse experiences, from working as a night auditor to serving as a distribution assistant, have equipped me with exceptional problem-solving abilities and meticulous attention to detail. These roles have not only sharpened my technical skills but also instilled in me the value of organization and teamwork.

I hold a Bachelor of Science in Computer Engineering, which has provided me with a solid understanding of OOP principles. Additionally, I earned a diploma in Software Engineering from Centennial College, where I was introduced to web development, sparking my passion for the field. My recent achievement from the BrainStation bootcamp has further solidified my foundation in web development.

Currently, I am continuing to build my career in software development, always eager to tackle new challenges and contribute to innovative solutions. I believe that my combination of technical expertise, practical experience, and collaborative spirit makes me a valuable asset to any team. I am excited about the possibilities of connecting and working with professionals who share my passion for technology and innovation.

Tech Stack:

Over the course of my education, I have been exposed to various technologies, and I am enthusiastic about revisiting them:
