it all started with a simple question: “how do websites work?” as a curious student, i spent countless nights learning html, css, and javascript. what began as a hobby quickly became an obsession with creating digital experiences that could connect people and solve real problems.
the evolution
during the pandemic, i took the plunge into deeper concept of software development. building my first startup taught me more about product development, user experience, and the realities of bringing ideas to life than any course ever could.
