About Me

Hello! My name is Dawit 👋. I craft systems that are delightful and accessible.

My interest in software development started back in 2016 when I came across the developer community on Instagram. I became deeply fascinated by it and started to learn more from sources like Codecademy and W3Schools.

This ultimately influenced my decision to pursue a Computer Science degree.

While building a strong technical foundation in college, I dedicated a lot of my free time teaching myself web development and building things out.

I also enjoy playing story-driven games. So much so that I built a full-stack project around the idea. My current favorite - 'Banishers: Ghosts of New Eden'.
