About Me

Get to know me better

My Journey

I'm a passionate developer with a background in computer science and a love for creating elegant solutions to complex problems. My journey in tech began when I built my first website at the age of 15, and I've been hooked ever since.

After graduating with a degree in Computer Science, I've worked with various technologies and frameworks, constantly expanding my knowledge and skills. I believe in writing clean, maintainable code and creating intuitive user experiences.

What I Do

I specialize in building full-stack web applications using modern technologies like React, Next.js, Node.js, and various databases. I'm passionate about creating responsive, accessible, and performant web applications that provide exceptional user experiences.

When I'm not coding, you can find me hiking in the mountains with my camera, reading novels, or experimenting with new recipes in the kitchen. I believe in continuous learning and am always exploring new technologies and approaches.
