About

My journey into technology wasn't conventional. I began my career in hospitality as a Front Office Receptionist, where I naturally gravitated toward solving technical problems. Through continuous self-learning and hands-on experience, I transitioned into IT and grew into an IT Manager. Today, I combine IT operations, software development, and product thinking to create technology that solves real-world problems.

Philosophy

I believe technology should simplify life, empower people, and solve problems that truly matter.
