Welcome to my portfolio

My journey as a developer began at Hive Helsinki, a 42 network coding school. There, I built a solid foundation in low-level programming with C and object-oriented programming with C++. As I have progressed through Hive's curriculum, my passion led me to explore web development and broaden my skill set. Explore my portfolio below to see a selection of projects from both my time at Hive and personal work
