About
I study software engineering at VIA University College. I hold Certiport certifications in Python, databases and device configuration, and I spent two years teaching IT and robotics workshops at ROBOCODE.
Outside class, I edit videos. I cut promos and short form content in After Effects for clients who need raw footage turned into something people actually finish watching. Pairing the two wasn't really a plan, it just happened, and now I split my time between them fairly evenly.
I like having a clear direction and understanding the bigger goal, but I don't wait for a plan to be perfect before starting. I break a problem into smaller steps, work through them, and adjust as I go. In a team I tend to become the person keeping things organized and moving, and I care as much about people feeling comfortable contributing as I do about the technical work itself. Learn by doing, communicate clearly, take ownership until the job is actually done, that's roughly how I work.
Right now I'm looking for a part time student job. Tech work would be ideal, but I'm open to any office role that keeps me busy.

Semester 1, team of 4
CloverNet
CloverNet manages green actions, communal tasks and point trades for a fictional eco village. My team built it start to finish in one semester: requirements, use cases, a domain model, a JavaFX admin app backed by JSON, and a read only site so residents can see the community's progress.

Semester 2, team project
Flight Booking System
A booking platform for searching flights, comparing fares and reserving seats, with an admin side for managing routes and schedules. Same process as CloverNet: model the data before touching the interface.

Bot Arena
A side project that grew out of teaching robotics at ROBOCODE: bots that navigate a grid and fight using basic pathfinding and decision logic. Still unfinished, the AI cheats less than it used to.
