About me
I'm a software engineer with over a decade of experience in computer science. I continuously strive for excellence in my career. I started programming at 14 in 2011 and have since built an impressive academic foundation, earning associate’s, bachelor’s, and master’s degrees in computer science. Along the way, I published two articles at international conferences, showcasing my expertise.
My dedication to learning and growth has led to rapid career progression. I earned promotions almost yearly and achieved Staff Software Engineer 3 before age 30. Known for being highly proactive, I consistently deliver value fast, driving impactful results across teams and projects. I've completed over 200 courses on Alura and successfully delivered many end-to-end projects, ranging from landing pages to complex applications and systems.
