My journey into technology began in 2018. Growing up in Ethiopia, I spent countless hours exploring games, computers, and the internet. What started as curiosity about how websites, applications, and games worked quickly turned into a passion for creating technology myself. From a young gamer fascinated by software, I became determined to understand how digital products are built.

While I started learning programming in 2018, the COVID-19 pandemic became a major turning point in my life. During lockdowns, I dedicated myself fully to software development, spending countless hours learning, building projects, and improving my skills. I began with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript before expanding into React, Next.js, React Native, Node.js, databases, cloud technologies, and modern software engineering practices.

Today, I am a self-taught software engineer and entrepreneur focused on building technology that creates real impact. From multilingual dictionary applications and educational platforms to fintech and digital marketplace solutions, my mission is to make technology more accessible for communities across Africa. I continue to explore artificial intelligence, blockchain, and emerging technologies while working toward building products that can reach millions of people.
