What I'm looking for

I am looking for a collaborative environment where I can grow my backend development skills and contribute to impactful projects.

I'm an entry-level backend software developer with a strong foundation in Python and a passion for building scalable and maintainable systems. My hands-on experience includes developing RESTful APIs and integrating databases using tools like Flask and SQLAlchemy. I pride myself on my ability to write clean, efficient code and my commitment to continuous learning.

Throughout my projects, such as the PennyPilot app and an Auto Mechanic Shop application, I have successfully implemented secure credential management and modular application structures. My work has not only improved system security but also enhanced user experience through clear API documentation and robust database functionality. I am eager to contribute my skills and grow within a dynamic team.
