About Me
I'm a Software Engineer with a passion for software development and artificial intelligence. I specialize in full-stack development and have experience working with various technologies and frameworks.
When I'm not coding, you can find me teaching how to code, programming at hackathons, or exploring new technologies.
In my free time, I love to dance, hike, and watch movies/shows. I also love to travel and explore new places.
