Growing up in the busy city of New York, I've come to see software development as a parallel to urban life. Just as the city never sleeps, this field never stops evolving. Software development, like the city itself, offers a boundless realm of possibilities to turn ideas into reality, and I'm excited to see where this journey takes me. Looking forward, I'm on a journey of growth and innovation. I'm eager to take on new challenges, explore my creativity, and convert innovative ideas into reality. My dream is to build my own business and collaborate with companies that share my passion. Right now, I'm taking the small steps that lead to big adventures.
