hi, my name is alex
I’m an early-career software engineer focused on building reliable systems and expanding my skills across new technologies.
about me
I'm a computer science student and former investment banking analyst making the transition into software engineering. As an early-career developer, I’m especially interested in building reliable systems and expanding my skills across new technologies. My background in finance taught me to solve complex problems under pressure, analyze systems critically, and pay close attention to details — strengths I now bring to software engineering.
I’m particularly drawn to backend and systems programming, where efficiency and reliability matter. At the same time, I’m open to full-stack and front-end roles that let me contribute to meaningful projects, learn new technologies, and grow as a developer.
