Summary

Enthusiastic and dedicated Software Engineering graduate with First-Class Honours from the University of Stirling, with a strong passion for software development, game development, and continuous learning.

Following the outbreak of war in Ukraine in February 2022, I relocated to Germany, where I studied German for several months before independently moving to Scotland to pursue higher education, including a second bachelor's degree.
