about
From prenursing to programming, my journey to computer science was a natural evolution. Having spent most of my life using computers and playing video games, the transition made sense.
I have a particular interest in backend work, but my first job introduced me to full stack development, and I’ve grown to prefer it, with a strong inclination towards the backend. After my first job, I took a long break to recharge and focus on other interests.
Most of my personal projects are created for personal use, driven by my interests. When Im not coding or gaming, you’ll likely find me walking my dog, Momo, or hitting the gym.
