Hey! I'm a 1st year Software Development student at ROC Ter Aa in Helmond. I'm passionate about building things from scratch and understanding how technology works under the hood.

I got into programming because I love solving problems and the feeling of turning a blank editor into something that actually works. Whether it's a small script or a full-blown app — I enjoy every step of the process.

Right now I'm focused on the fundamentals: HTML, CSS, JavaScript and Python. I'm always try working on personal projects to put theory into practice.

My goal? To become a full-stack developer and build things that make people's lives a little bit easier — or at least more fun.
