Summary

Hi, I'm Thato —a recent graduate from CodeSpace where I built a strong foundation in full-stack development and discovered my passion for backend engineering. I’m a naturally curious problem-solver who loves turning new knowledge into action. Whether it's learning AWS, building APIs, or collaborating on projects, I bring a thoughtful, hands-on approach to everything I do. I'm excited to grow in a role where I can keep learning, contribute meaningfully, and be part of building tech that matters.
