My Story
Ever since I was a young kid I have always had a special interest in creating websites and managing servers. I always try to learn new things and expand my knowledge of the field. This has allowed me to gain a wide range of skills ranging from front-end development to back-end development, server management and security.
Coding since I was 13 years old
When I was 13 years old my cousin showed me how to make a simple website using HTML. Ever since then, I have been in love with writing code. Over the years, I started to expand my skills and knowledge.
Once I got into a study for interaction design, I started to develop my skills fast. Since I had gained a good foundation, I started to expand my coding knowledge outside of school. And I then started to learn React outside of school.
Coding for good
In my twenties, when I started to explore my identity, I also wanted to pay back to the community that helped me find myself. I did this by offering my services to members of the community. Such as developing bots that helped detect hateful behavior using AI for LGBTQIA+ community discord servers.
