A little bit about me
I spent over a decade working in social work and family support—handling casework, coordination, and witnessing firsthand how processes and systems often hinder people rather than helping them. It was precisely this perspective that led me to software development. My transition into full-stack development (specifically the MERN stack) was therefore not a break from the past, but a continuation: building digital solutions that dismantle barriers and improve access, rather than creating new hurdles. For me, user-centric thinking was never just a methodology—it was my job for ten years.
