What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry-level role where I can apply my Java/Python/SQL skills and build with Angular/React, strengthen database and web fundamentals, and grow through collaboration and mentorship while delivering reliable, well-structured solutions.

I’m bilingual in French and English, with strong communication and public speaking skills, and I bring an analytical, organized approach to solving technical and operational problems. I’m building my software engineering foundation through Computer Engineering Technology – Computing Science Advanced Diploma at Algonquin College, where I’ve developed proficiency across multiple programming languages, operating systems, and software engineering tools.

I’m proficient in Java, C, and SQL, plus Python, with strong foundations in object-oriented programming and database design. I also have experience with Angular, JavaScript, HTML, .Net, and React, supported by a good understanding of web programming fundamentals, alongside networking fundamentals, computer hardware, microcontrollers, and Linux operating systems.

Outside of technical learning, I’ve strengthened real-world teamwork and conflict resolution through customer-focused roles, including safety and security work and classroom support as a Substitute Teacher. I’m motivated by environments that reward collaboration, clear problem-solving, and continuous learning, especially where I can turn structured thinking into reliable software.
