About
Hello, Over the past several years, I have worked across various domains within the financial sector. I thrive in supportive remote environments where the focus remains on coding rather than excessive meetings, enabling efficient and productive deliveries. I am proactive in seeking inspiration to continuously improve, learn by doing, and embrace new challenges. As a quick learner, I adapt rapidly and grow exponentially within any team.
