🎯 Future Goals & Ambitions

🏦 Target Company: Ferocia

I'm passionate about joining the innovative team at Ferocia. Their values and product align perfectly with my goals, and I'm excited to work with their tech stack of Ruby on Rails, JavaScript, and React Native.

Learning Path:

  • Ruby & Ruby on Rails - Building robust web applications
  • JavaScript - Deepening my frontend expertise
  • Go - Exploring systems programming
  • React Native - Mobile app development

🌍 Location

πŸ‡¦πŸ‡Ί Melbourne, Australia - Home of great coffee, killer views, and apparently, one aspiring software engineer!


πŸ’‘ My Approach

I believe in the power of small wins. Not grand, sweeping changes, but the tiny improvements that actually stick. Whether it's helping someone track their finances better or automate a frustrating process, I'm all about creating practical solutions that give people back their time and mental space.

Software isn't magic. It's a tool. And I'm here to use that tool to help people do what they do, just a bit more efficiently.


πŸŽ“ A Note About My Learning Journey

I "vibe coded" my way through my degree and learned the hard way that while AI tools can enhance productivity, it's crucial to understand what they can do for you rather than letting them do everything. Now I'm committed to writing everything from scratch - no shortcuts, just solid learning! πŸ’ͺ

Next up: Building a fully functional portfolio website using Ruby and Ruby on Rails - written entirely by me, no AI assistance.
