About Me

From medicine to code - a journey driven by passion, curiosity, and an unwavering work ethic

My Journey

I'm a computer science graduate and AI developer who formerly pursued medicine. That path sharpened the analytical thinking and problem-solving skills I now apply to production AI systems and full-stack software.

I've always been passionate about tinkering with technology and finding innovative ways to use it to my advantage. This curiosity drives me to constantly learn and experiment with new tools and frameworks.

I firmly believe that "hard work beats talent" - and given the chance, I'm ready to prove myself and make a meaningful impact.

My Philosophy

"Success isn't just about what you accomplish in your life, it's about what you inspire others to do. Every line of code is an opportunity to solve problems and create value."
