About Me

I started my career as an electrician, solving real-world problems under pressure and working with complex systems in the field. Eventually, I had to learn how to read PLC diagrams, and I found it fascinating — the idea that a program, combined with the right wiring, could control something so intricate. That’s what sparked my deep interest in software development — the logic, the automation, the ability to build things that scale.

Since then, I’ve been teaching myself backend development with a strong focus on clean, testable code and real-world APIs. I’ve built and deployed projects using FastAPI, Django, Docker, PostgreSQL, JWT authentication, and CI/CD pipelines. Every line of code I write is part of my journey from tradesman to engineer — and I bring the same work ethic, resourcefulness, and grit to every repo.

I’m constantly expanding my skills — digging into testing, system design, and trying to solve real world problems. I genuinely love learning new things, whether it’s exploring a new framework, understanding how infrastructure fits together, or just getting better at writing clean, maintainable code. Building software is something I truly enjoy, and I’m excited to keep growing, shipping, and challenging myself every day.

Blog: My Journey Into Dev

These are raw posts I wrote when I was just starting out — full of struggles, wins, and the mindset shift that pushed me from tradesman to dev.

These aren’t technical deep dives — they’re the thoughts and reflections I had while learning to code for the first time. If you’re just starting, I hope they make you feel a little less alone.
