About
After deciding to pursue a long-standing passion for technology, I made a bold career pivot into software development driven by curiosity, a love for problem-solving, and a desire to build solutions that make a real-world impact.
I recently earned a degree in Software Development, where I immersed myself in both academic learning and practical, project-based experience. During a 6-month internship at Allianz Technology, I contributed to modernising legacy applications and helped develop a proof of concept for a refreshed architecture.
My commitment to excellence and continuous learning was recognised with a Student of the Year award. I thrive in collaborative environments and continue to sharpen my skills in C#/ASP.NET Core, Angular, and other technologies through hands-on projects and self-directed exploration.
Now, I'm eager to bring my technical skills, adaptability, and strong work ethic to an entry-level software development role where I can contribute to impactful projects and grow as part of a forward-thinking team.
