About Me

Throughout my career, I have always focused on learning new things, questioning why they are necessary, and trying them out in my current projects. I am always excited about coming up with new ideas and starting new projects. For me, the most important thing is to build efficient relationships with my colleagues, share my experiences with them, and learn significant approaches from their experiences. Now, it's time to hone my coding skills specifically for Apple, focusing solely on this area.
