About me

Self-taught software developer with a lifelong passion for technology that began with early exploration of computers, starting from the Commodore 64 and MS-DOS. Gained hands-on understanding of how computers work long before writing my first lines of code. Built multiple full-stack applications using JavaScript, Node.js, and REST APIs. Focused on writing clean, accessible, and reliable code, while continuously expanding my skills into backend engineering and AWS.
