About Me

As a developer, my passion continues to grow every day as I embark on my lifelong journey of learning. I am eager to take part in and contribute to building something that adds value to broad consumers or users.

In my previous experience as a finance professional, I relished the opportunity to solve problems and develop technical aspects of my job. I possess an attention to detail, the ability to work with different teams and people, and a mindset geared towards developing scalable processes. I hope to bring my experiences, problem-solving skills, and positive energy to the start of my new career as a developer.

Besides work, I am a cat mom who loves to do cat things with cats 😸
