About Me

Hello! My name is Kenjy, and I am a Full-Stack Developer based in California. I have a deep passion for problem-solving, coding, and leveraging technology to build impactful solutions.

My interests continuously evolve with my environment, and currently, I am particularly fascinated by Next.js. I thrive on learning new technologies and frameworks, always seeking opportunities to enhance my skills and stay ahead in the ever-changing tech landscape.

I am a highly motivated and fast learner, always driven by clear goals. Collaborating with like-minded, passionate developers inspires me to push boundaries, ask insightful questions, and continuously refine my craft. I take pride in my ability to adapt quickly, improve processes, and deliver high-quality work on time.

Beyond just coding, I have a strong appreciation for communication, mentorship, and building meaningful relationships. I am a firm believer in teamwork, fostering a positive work culture, and encouraging innovation within any environment.

Outside of technology, I enjoy rock climbing, camping, and exploring live music. I am also an avid gamer with a deep interest in FPS, MMORPGs, and TCG/Board Games.
