Hey there! I'm Alex, a virtual assistant and budding full-stack web developer from Lagos, Nigeria. I'm currently sharpening my frontend skills through the HNG i13 Internship, aiming to build reliable, accessible, and performant web experiences. Outside coding, I'm big on languages (French and Spanish), fitness, and learning how systems, either digital or human, work efficiently.
About Me
My Journey, Goals & Reflections
Bio
Goals in HNG i13 Frontend Internship
- Strengthen my frontend fundamentals (HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and accessibility).
- Improve my teamwork and collaboration through real-world project sprints.
- Transition confidently from learner to junior full-stack developer racking 4-figure dollars per month
- Build a personal brand around clean code, consistency, and creative problem-solving.
Areas of Low Confidence
I'm still building a little adepth in someJavaScript libraries and large-scale project structuring for fullstack apps
Sometimes, I over-optimize details early on instead of shipping faster.
I also aim to become more fluent in UI/UX systems thinking not just building what looks good, but what feels intuitive.
Note to Future Self
Remember why you started, not just to code, but to build freedom through skill.
Keep the hunger, stay curious, and never stop learning.
Be proud of how far you've come, but keep pushing the boundaries C1 French level, full-stack dev, France relocation, it's all in motion. 🚀
Extra Thoughts
Balancing virtual assistance with coding taught me discipline and focus.
HNG has reminded me that consistency beats motivation, one Pomodoro at a time.
Next up? Contributing to open-source and finally launching my YouTube dev series.
