What I'm looking for

Seeking a dynamic environment where I can apply my technical skills in software development and web technologies to contribute to innovative projects and further my professional growth.

I am an aspiring software developer currently serving as a board member and webmaster for the Student Association of Foreign Affairs at Linköping University. My primary responsibilities include managing the organization's website, which I built from scratch using Hugo, and coordinating various activities and debates.

Alongside my studies in Computer Science and Software Engineering, I have gained diverse experience through internships and part-time roles. I have worked on web development projects, managed IT systems, and contributed to marketing efforts. My technical skills include proficiency in Python, Java, C++, and Go, as well as experience with web frameworks like SolidJS and ReactJS.

I am passionate about leveraging technology to solve complex problems and continuously seek opportunities to enhance my skills in software development, particularly in areas like AI and machine learning. My goal is to contribute to innovative projects that align with my technical expertise and curiosity for emerging technologies.
