About me
I'm a data analyst, business intelligence officer, and software engineer passionate about data analytics and web development. I love creating engaging, beautiful and impactful solutions, and uncovering insights in data while pushing the boundaries of what's possible.
Beyond coding and analytics, I'm an aspiring photographer, a food enthusiast, and a traveller. I believe in the power of technology to solve real-world problems, which drives my entrepreneurial spirit.
My approach to life and design is rooted in minimalism and simplicity, but I always make room for fun and creativity. I'm constantly learning and growing, both in my professional skills and personal interests.

My toolbox
A jack of all trades is a master of none, but oftentimes better than a master of one.
I believe in knowing enough to navigate challenges effectively. The internet is a vast resource, and mastering the ability to research, think critically, and approach information with healthy scepticism is key.
I understand each tool in my kit well enough to apply it, research further when needed, and ultimately solve the problem at hand.
Next.js is my productivity hack, but it's starting to feel like a guilty pleasure
