What I'm looking for

I am looking for opportunities that allow me to grow my skills, work remotely, and contribute to innovative projects in a supportive environment.

I'm a self-taught and highly disciplined junior software developer and IT enthusiast based in Nairobi, Kenya. With strong skills in Java, Python, HTML, CSS, and Excel, I am motivated to grow through real-world experience and self-directed learning. My journey has equipped me with a solid foundation in programming and a keen interest in building small tech projects.

In my recent freelance role, I developed a Java-based inventory tracking console app and created personal web pages using HTML and CSS. I also automated file renaming and data scripts in Python, showcasing my ability to leverage technology for practical solutions. My experience extends to financial market analysis, where I have honed my skills in price action trading and backtesting using TradingView, allowing me to develop a disciplined trading strategy.
