I'm Alan Cruz, a graduate Full Stack Software Developer Diploma program from Code Institute based in Ireland. Currently, I'm pursuing my MBA in Software Engineering at the prestigious University of São Paulo (USP), blending practical industry experience with advanced academic insights.

Passionate Full Stack Software Developer in progress with a background in Business Administration, HR (Human Resources) and Accounting.

After many years, I've finally found what I wish I had been doing all along - Better late than never!

I found the right path after realising I was always being asked to pick up the more technical aspects of projects and enjoyed carrying them out. I've always liked technology, design and always learning new skills.

So here I am, learning everything I can right now, figuring out the problems as I go and looking forward to the new world ahead.

  Hackathon Projects

  Participating in my first hackathon had me on edge, but, was it a ride! Snagged third place and loved every minute of collaborating with fellow hackers under tight deadlines, using sprints and agile methods. It's pure adrenaline and totally worth it!
