About

In 2019, I took a leap of faith into web development, teaching myself to code and never looking back.

Currently, I'm crafting engaging web experiences at a digital agency, where I continue to push the boundaries of what's possible on the web. My journey shows that with passion and dedication, you can transform your career into something you truly love.
