About me

The short version: I am learning to build for the web, and I like explaining what I learn.

My journey started with curiosity about how the websites I used every day actually worked. That curiosity turned into structured learning through Programming Hero, where I have been building a foundation in HTML, CSS, JavaScript and React, and I am now working my way through the MERN stack.

I learn best by building. BazarDor and FitLog began as course assignments, but I treated them like real products - authentication, dynamic routes, state management, responsive layouts and careful UI details. Along the way I wrote a DEV.to article explaining why I chose the MERN stack, because understanding something well enough to explain it is the real test.

Currently, I work full-time as a Content Writer at Russkin Bright, a marketing agency. Writing and coding turned out to complement each other: both are about structuring ideas so another person can follow them. I care about clear communication as much as clean components.

Outside of code, I love watching movies and travelling whenever I can. New places and new problems appeal to me for the same reason - they make me look at things from a different angle.
