I'm an experienced software engineer with over 7 years of experience in the field. I specialize in cloud services, Android app development using Java and Kotlin, as well as Django with Python. One of my passions is technical documentation, and I'm always looking for ways to improve my skills in this area. I love helping people get better technically and I feel fulfilled knowing that I can make a positive impact on someone's career. In my free time, I enjoy playing chess. It's a great way to unwind and exercise my mind. I find that playing chess helps me to stay sharp and focused, which translates to better productivity when I'm back at work. Overall, I'm proud of the work I've done as a software engineer and I'm excited to continue growing and learning in this field.
Here's what I've written (so far):
