I am a career switcher into software development after seven years in education, where I built strong foundations in communication, structured thinking, and problem-solving. My transition into tech has been hands-on and practical, developing REST APIs, working with relational databases, and building full backend applications using Java, Spring Boot, Python, and MySQL. Through collaborative group projects and independent builds, I have gained experience in agile team work, Git workflows, testing, and containersization. I enjoy turning ideas into structured, reliable systems and building applications that provide real value to users.
