Building a Startup Through Self-Taught Expertise at Self-employed
Pretoria, South Africa

With a strong passion for coding and a keen interest in economics, I am a self-taught web developer. I have been expanding my knowledge and skills in computer science and web development through online courses and personal projects for the past two years, gaining a solid foundation in computational thinking, abstraction, data structures, algorithms, software engineering, and web design. My expertise lies in creating high-quality, responsive, and mobile-friendly websites using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Bootstrap on the front end, and Python with Django on the back end. I have also built multiple projects from start to finish, working with clients and managing projects effectively and efficiently. I am always eager to learn and grow as a developer, and I am confident in my ability to tackle any challenge that comes my way. I am currently in the process of building a prototype for a startup idea that emerged from my CS50W final project and conducting customer interviews to validate and refine my product.

Building a Startup Through Self-Taught Expertise
Over the past year, I have been dedicated to teaching myself programming through personal projects and online courses. Through these experiences, I have honed my skills in web development and have even built websites for clients. However, it was during my work on my CS50W final project, that a startup idea began to take shape. Although I initially dismissed the idea, it kept me up at night and eventually, I decided to pivot my final project into a startup venture. I am currently in the process of building a prototype and conducting customer interviews to better understand the market and tailor my product to meet their needs.
