Dynamic and detail-oriented Software Engineer with a strong foundation in web development, software testing, and IT support. I bring hands-on experience from roles such as Software Developer, Software Test Engineer, MI/Data Analyst, and IT Technician, which have equipped me with both technical expertise and analytical thinking. These roles have also strengthened my adaptability, attention to detail, and communication skills. Proficient in a wide range of programming languages, tools and frameworks, I focus on building scalable, efficient and user-focused solutions. I excel at working collaboratively in cross-functional teams to streamline workflows, improve performance and drive continuous improvement in digital products. Recently, I completed a full stack development traineeship, where I successfully delivered two real-world web projects to specification using modern technologies. This experience reinforced my passion for development and problem-solving. I am now focused on growing within the tech industry, bringing a strong work ethic, a user-first mindset, and a drive to contribute meaningfully to forward-thinking development teams.
