PROFESSIONAL CAREER

Experience

I have always been fascinated by web technologies and how they can transform the way we communicate, learn, and work. My journey as a web developer began in 2016, when I started building pet projects with HTML and CSS as an undergraduate student. This sparked my interest and passion for web development, and helped me land my first internship.
