I am a junior full stack developer that leverages clean code, test-driven development, and agile methodologies for user-centric software, demonstrated by a top 10 ranking at the 2023 TargetJobs National Coding Challenge hackathon with Cognizant. Motivated to improve software efficiency from my experience as a Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner, I transitioned into software development. Currently, as a Makers graduate, I harness my problem-solving and analytical skills to continuously strive to create impactful solutions, motivated by a drive for meaningful innovation.
