Self-taught frontend developer passionate about turning ideas into clean, user-friendly web experiences.

My path into tech hasn’t been a straight one — it’s been shaped by curiosity, creativity, and a lifelong desire to keep learning. The constant thread through all my professional experiences has been the drive to grow and adapt.

Before discovering code, I studied Hospitality & Tourism and worked in diverse settings — from hotels and restaurants to administrative roles across different industries. Over the years, I’ve seen how patience, empathy, and small details can completely change how people experience something — a lesson that now guides how I think about building for the web.

Each step, even the detours, has taught me that growth doesn’t always happen in a straight line — sometimes it’s the quiet shifts, the small learnings, that prepare you for the next big step.

I first became curious about web development more than fifteen years ago while experimenting with WordPress, building small freelance websites for local clients - including a hotel-restaurant and a few small businesses. I loved seeing ideas come to life online, but I often reached the limits of what I could customize without understanding the code behind it.

In 2021, I decided to go deeper and began learning through freeCodeCamp, where I earned my Responsive Web Design certification. That experience reignited my passion for creating and sparked a desire to understand how the web works from front to back.

In 2024, I joined herHack, the largest female-led hackathon in Switzerland, where our team proudly won 2nd place. Working under pressure reminded me how creativity and collaboration can bring bold ideas to life.

The following year, I completed Harvard’s CS50: Computer Science for Web Programming, a professional certification that challenged me to build full-stack projects and connect the dots between logic, design, and user experience.

Each of these experiences has shaped not only my technical foundation but also the way I approach learning - with persistence, curiosity, and a genuine excitement for building.

Debugging and I have a complicated relationship. There were times when the console screamed at me, and one missing semicolon nearly broke my spirit - but never my curiosity.

Every bug has felt like an invitation to dig deeper and understand a little more. Frustrating? Absolutely. But walking away was never an option - there’s always that moment when the problem finally clicks, and it’s worth every bit of the struggle.

For me, coding isn’t just a skill - it’s a way of thinking and expressing ideas with structure and care.

Each project I take on is a chance to improve my process, keep learning, and grow through real challenges and collaboration.
