Turned life's curveball into coding passion. Lifelong learner. Resilient. Excited for what's next.
After a sudden turn of events in 2019 resulted in paraplegia, a new path was charted for me. Instead of acting as a constraint, it kindled a fierce passion for technology and coding. This unexpected transition allowed me to delve into the realm of programming, opening doors to challenges and growth opportunities I had not previously explored. From this, I've leveraged my passion to amass an array of programming skills, utilizing them to design and build complex and meaningful systems.
My ability to adapt, remain resilient, and continuously evolve, even in the face of adversity, is a unique strength. This steadfastness, alongside my technical expertise, fuels my enthusiasm for contributing innovation and value within the vibrant realm of software development.
