I'm

A little about me..

Greetings from the enchanting city of Paris! I am a passionate individual on a journey of self-discovery and continuous learning. Currently immersed in the beauty of the French language, I find joy in unraveling the intricacies of living in this vibrant city.

My heart beats to the rhythm of technology, particularly in the realm of Laravel & PHP development. A devoted enthusiast, I've not only honed my skills but also contributed to the community by volunteering at conferences and sharing insights at meetups. The thrill of exchanging knowledge on various subjects ignites my spirit; I am always eager to engage in conversations ranging from coding to the wonders of the world.

Music has been an integral part of my life since college, where drumming was my muse. The pandemic nudged me to explore new melodies, leading me to pick up the guitar with renewed enthusiasm. Every strum is a step into uncharted territory, & I relish the challenge of this musical evolution.

Beyond the digital realm & musical notes, I crave adventure. Traveling allows me to capture the essence of diverse cultures through my lens. Armed with my phone, I seek stories in every corner of the globe, freezing moments in time.

In essence, I am a melody of passions ‐ from coding to creating music, and exploring the world through a photographer's lens. Join me in this symphony of life as I continue to learn, share, and embrace the myriad experiences that come my way.
