Summary

I am an iOS App Developer with a background in telecoms, which has equipped me with a wide variety of cross-transferable skills. These include effective communication and a continuous drive to learn and tackle challenges.

But what fuels my fire the most, is the magical feeling of transforming a blank canvas into something extraordinary! When I delve into the realm of coding, I find myself in a playground of creativity, where I can imagine solutions to intriguing problems. My ultimate goal is to harness these skills like a superhero and craft apps that bring joy and significantly improve the lives of their users.

When I'm not hunched over my screen working on my newest project, I actively contribute to open-source projects and enjoy sharing knowledge online through the Developer community on Kodeco's Discord platform.
