About me
Hey there, I'm Saadia, and I absolutely love problem-solving and debugging š. My fascination with coding goes way back to high school when I started building websites with basic HTML using a humble text editor like NotePad š. I initially went down the path of hydraulic engineering and spent a few years in that field. But you know what? My heart just wasn't in it, and I couldn't shake my true passion: programming. So, I've recently made the bold move to switch gears and dive into the tech world. I can't wait to see where this new journey leads me! š
