👩‍🌾 I'm a young Software & Mobile Engineer who believes in kindness, heroes and human super powers. ✨
💻 I usually work with React, React Native, Context, Redux, Gatsby, CSS Modules, TypeScript, Bitrise and Netlify.
📖 I’m also enthusiastic about helping connect technology and education to promote meaningful and better-informed learning opportunities.

🎨 I'm deeply interested in:

• Exercise and martial arts (I practice Kung Fu), and the challenges that come with it.
• Having fun and doing lively things (I play Stardew Valley, board games, and watch anime).
• Doing something that connects us to the present (like nurturing faith and growing vegetables).

🎨 On learning, I also notice:

• Different forms of apprehension, and how the human mind can learn.
• Learning as a continuous, lifelong process - that is, not one that ends after a diploma.
• How different people learn at different rhythms and ways. We all have strengths and weaknesses.
• Education for independence and freedom, not only just locked up to schools. Learning can happen anyhow and anywhere.
• Learning to be prepared for life’s challenges and adventures - not for passing standardized tests and getting good grades.

We humans are so used to science fiction and big, loud movie explosions that we forget that there are many amazing, rich, fantastic powers, mostly hidden right inside ourselves 🌟:

• the power of choosing kindness,
• of showing support to a person in need on a challenging time,
• of lending a much needed hug or, quite simply,
• of being able to go through a hard day. 🌼

Day after day, I try to apply these thoughts into my actions. That's where the super powers come from. 📝
