About me

As a passionate music and entertainment enthusiast, I initially pursued a degree in music business during my college years. While I may not have been the most naturally gifted musician, I completed my degree in May 2015. However, I soon realized that the music business wasn't the perfect fit for my personality.

I followed my love for technology and transitioned into Manual QA Testing at a tech startup, where I collaborated closely with software engineers. It was during this time that I discovered that my true passion was coding. The blend of creative thinking, logic, and technology fascinated me. This realization led me to Turing, where I unlocked a wealth of knowledge and embarked on my journey to become a front-end engineer.
