My journey started in Mechanical Engineering, but a chance encounter with FreeCodeCamp sparked a passion for code. I dove into HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, and suddenly, my old programming classes made sense.

After a full-stack bootcamp, I landed my first role at Wipro (found via Instagram!) and built my first landing page with React. The real test came with a Wells Fargo project, migrating legacy apps to modern frontends and even leading a challenging rewrite—a beautiful disaster that taught me more than any success could have.

Now at IBM, I contribute to the Carbon Design System, supporting thousands of developers. It's been a wild ride from tutorials to a major design system, and I feel like I'm just getting started.
