Building something new and
coding ideas into reality
TL;DR
My journey as a software engineer began at a hackathon, sparking a love for backend development that has grown ever since. I’m passionate about developing applications that resonate with users and bring into existence something new and positively impactful.
Fun fact about me: I double majored in philosophy and computer science, which gives me a unique perspective when solving complex problems that don’t have a clear answer.
When I’m not coding, I like writing on Medium or playing tug-of-war sessions with my puppy.
Keen to chat about philosophy, coding or anything in between?
