I joined Capgemini in August 2023 after earning a bachelor’s degree in computer science. During my studies, I also worked part-time as a software developer, which gave me valuable hands-on experience and helped me prepare for my professional career.

Starting out as a full stack developer, I have since contributed to several projects across different sectors, solving challenging technical problems and continuously developing my technical skills. Over time, I have aimed not only to deliver solutions but also to grow into the role of a trusted advisor for clients and colleagues.
