🌟 Purpose of This Website
I’m a Software Engineer with 15 years of experience in software testing, with the last 5 years focused on automation testing using Java. This website is a reflection of my journey—both in technology and personal growth. It’s a canvas for experimenting with new technologies, sharing lessons learned, and exploring my thoughts on how technology is evolving.
Currently, I’m focusing on becoming certified as an AWS Developer Associate, diving deeper into Terraform, and expanding my knowledge of Spring Boot. This site is my way of documenting what I’m learning, experimenting with new tools, and preparing for my transition into a technical leadership role.
