🎓 I'm a Bachelor’s graduate in Computer Science with a broad set of interests across the tech landscape. From full stack web development to embedded systems, network infrastructure, distributed systems, and even the ever-evolving world of ML/AI — I’m passionate about understanding how complex systems work from the ground up.

🌩️ My long-term goal is to build impactful systems in the Cloud Computing space. That said, I'm always open to exciting opportunities that let me grow, solve real-world problems, and learn new things along the way.

I'm currently dedicating most of my time to learning Python, with a focus on:

• Solid OOP fundamentals
• Working with databases and APIs
• Working on full-scale projects

Check out my structured Python learning repo:
📘 Python_fromScratch – Theory + Practice, all in one place.

These are a bunch of projects that I have done to reinforce my knowledge in Python, other than because I wanted to!

• 👾 PythonPkmnFinder - A simple yet fun Pokémon app, emulates a Pokédex using PyQt5, allowing you to search for any mon via PokeAPI.
• 🏎️ PythonF1Analytics - F1 data analytics tool built using Python and the OpenF1 API. Currently working on it!
• 🕰️ PythonDigitalClock - My first full Python project, a PyQt5 digital clock with custom fonts, logging, error handling and macOS packaging.
• 🌤️ PythonWeatherApp - The classic of the classics, a PyQt5 Weather app made using OpenWeatherAPI. Features light and dark mode, too!

Even though these were part of university coursework, they reflect my early experience with full stack and frontend design:

• 🌐 MetaClass: A full stack platform using ReactJS (frontend) and Spring Boot (backend) for managing university lectures and collaboration.
• 🎨 CulturEase_HCI: A human-computer interaction prototype for a cultural content app, focused on user experience and UI design.

These projects are currently deprecated, but still represent my earlier explorations into frontend/backend development and HCI.

• 🌐 Full Stack Web Development
• 🧠 ML/AI (early stage, but eager to explore!)
• 🔧 Embedded & System-Level Programming
• 📡 Network Infrastructure & Distributed Systems
• 📦 Cloud-Native Development & Architecture
• 🧩 Software Design and Architecture

• ✅ Finish Python fundamentals & create original full stack projects
• 🚀 Start integrating NumPy, PyTorch, and CUDA (in C) for ML/high-performance applications
• 🔧 Dive deeper into network protocols, distributed design, and cloud-native systems

I'm always happy to connect with people in tech — whether you're hiring, collaborating, or just want to exchange ideas.
