About me - From Chef to Lead Developer
Everything start by a passion...
From a young age, I was captivated by computers, constantly exploring and pushing the boundaries of new technologies. This early fascination laid the foundation for my unconventional career journey.
An Unconventional Path
My career path is unique, transitioning from a vocational diploma in hospitality to a master's degree in technology. While challenging, this shift was driven by my relentless pursuit of innovation and personal growth.
Self-Taught Passion
Despite my initial career in hospitality, my passion for digital technology and innovation never waned. I continuously honed my skills through:
- Exploring specialized forums
- Participating in technical challenges
- Developing personal projects
- Attempting entrepreneurship at age 20
This proactive approach allowed me to stay current with emerging technologies and effectively train myself in the digital realm.
Transferable Skills
My experience in hospitality, far from being a detour, proved invaluable. It instilled essential qualities that continue to serve me well in tech:
- Organization
- Responsibility
- Professionalism
- Teamwork
- Ability to follow instructions
These transferable skills have been crucial in distinguishing myself in the tech industry, enabling me to advance to a position where I successfully manage complex projects by combining technical expertise with organizational acumen.
Embracing the Journey
I view my diverse background as an asset. The fusion of hospitality experience with self-taught tech skills has shaped me into a well-rounded professional, capable of navigating the multifaceted challenges of the digital world with a unique perspective.
My vision - Passion is a driving force whose power we often underestimate
- Curiosity. I'm so curious, I consider "insatiable" as a compliment and "opportunity" as my middle name.
- Innovation. I'm not just thinking outside the box; I've forgotten what a box even looks like.
- Adaptability. From hospitality to tech, I pivot faster than a chef avoiding a falling knife.
- Professionalism. I treat every project like a Michelin-starred chef treats their signature dish – with utmost care and attention.
