About Me

I'm a 22-year-old Business Informatics student and currently working as a student software developer alongside my studies.

I always try to grow, both professionally and personally. Learning new things, facing challenges, and stepping out of my comfort zone are important parts of my journey.

I like meeting new people from diverse backgrounds to explore new ideas, share knowledge, and gain insights into other fields. These interactions often inspire me to think outside the box and stay curious about the world around me.

Outside of work and studies, I stay active by hitting the gym and playing basketball. I spend my free time reading books, working on side projects and exploring creative hobbies like photography and videography.

I'm excited about where this journey takes me.

Back in school I was the kid with poor grades, no real direction, and barely anyone who believed in me. Not teachers, not friends, not even family. One night, after breaking down in tears and feeling completely defeated, I knew something had to change. I made the decision to completely turn my life around. I wanted to prove to my environment that I was capable of more. I started pushing myself hard, staying up late and putting in the work every single night. I kept believing in myself and refused to give up. I'm genuinely thankful to God for giving me the strength to stay on this path and for everything I've learned along the way.
