About me
My passion for software development was ignited during my time at RDS Global, where I discovered the thrill of building meaningful applications from code and tackling complex problems. Specializing in web development, I have honed my skills in TypeScript and JavaScript, particularly with Next.js and React. Notable projects include Wild Tag, a social media app where I developed a dynamic side panel for posting and live messaging, and another project involving hardware data tracking with a React frontend. I approach learning with a hands-on mindset, constantly questioning and seeking improvements. I thrive in fast-paced environments that challenge me to work pragmatically, though I also appreciate the flexibility of remote work. Collaborating with others energizes me, and my ultimate goal is to become a world-class developer, contributing to impactful projects that make a difference in society. I am driven by the desire to leave a positive mark and improve the world through my work.
