I think. I code. I write.


Bust the myth! Developers do more than just code, and data isn’t just for data scientists. I strongly believe that a true developer blends both worlds and thrives on this synergy. In my eyes, software development is a captivating mind game. Curious to explore these ideas further? Let’s connect for a deeper discussion!
