About me
I am a web developer driven by a passion for solving technological challenges and continuous learning. My interest in programming began during my engineering studies, where I experimented with Arduino, Python, and 3D design, exploring how technology can transform ideas into practical solutions.
When I moved to Slovakia, I faced the challenge of adapting to new languages like English and Slovak, which helped me develop resilience and a global mindset. This transition marked a turning point in my career, as I began focusing on web development, creating projects to enhance my skills and explore the creative potential of coding.
One of my most significant achievements was designing a website from scratch for a restaurant, integrating features like a virtual menu with QR codes. This project not only solidified my technical skills but also allowed me to work directly with a client, adapting to their needs and delivering a functional and visually appealing product.
Currently, I am refining my knowledge of modern technologies such as React and Vite, while maintaining a focus on creating practical solutions and collaborating on small projects to strengthen my professional growth. My goal is to bring value through every line of code, constantly learning to successfully tackle new technological challenges.
