I've been interested in technology since university, where I took an elective in Java programming. I fell in love with the subject and knew I wanted to make it my career. After earning a bachelor's degree in Chemistry, I worked as a marketing manager in the tourism industry. There, I met many marketers with business acumen but lacking technical skills, particularly in SEO and website building. This inspired me to switch careers and become a software engineer at an Australian consulting firm, where I gained advanced front-end development skills. Outside of work, I pursued a part-time degree in computer science, which proved to be incredibly rewarding.
