About me

Former Army Infantry Squad Leader, Now passionate software developer. In 2023 I began learning JavaScript and fell in love with coding, I went on to learn frontend web development and found a lot of pride in my work but still hungry to learn more I came to Turing in early 2024 to learn Ruby on Rails and Backend development. Currently I'm working to refine my fullstack knowledge and dip my toes into Python.
