About

From concrete R&D to code

I started my career as an R&D engineer at a precast concrete manufacturer, where I learned to solve problems methodically and work closely with cross-functional teams. Two years in, I discovered software development — and taught myself into a full-time engineering role.

My biggest strength is adapting fast in unfamiliar territory: nine months after switching careers I was leading a development team. I keep that pace through constant learning — certifications, technical news, and hands-on experiments with new tools, shared with my team.

I aim to be an engineer who bridges technology and business — someone who can take a product from requirements to operations, and bring others along the way.
