A little about me...
Hey, I’m Lilitha — a curious mind, a self-taught coder but also WTC-made WeThinkCode_ , and a creative at heart.
I started software development back in high school in 2019. It began as a hobby, sparked by my love for sci-fi movies and an obsession with the cool tech they featured — think robots, Arduinos, and those iconic streams of ones and zeros from The Matrix. I remember being fascinated by how software seemed to power everything — from video games and social media, to the apps we use every day.
While the world around me suggested a more traditional path (doctor, lawyer... you know how it goes 😅), I chose code — and I haven’t looked back.
What I’m doing now
I’m currently a Software Engineer at Mukuru, where I’m getting hands-on experience in building real-world applications and learning from some brilliant engineers. Every day’s a step forward — whether I’m writing cleaner code, shipping features, or just debugging something stubborn.
Beyond the 9-to-5, I’m constantly building side projects, writing about what I’m learning, and trying to refine my skills across both frontend and backend.
Outside of code...
- 🎸 Playing guitar — I love fingerstyle and R&B-inspired progressions
- 🎮 Gaming — always down for a good challenge
- 🎥 Watching a sci-fi film (still can’t get enough)
- ⚽ Playing or watching football
What drives me
I believe in building things that are both useful and meaningful — tools, stories, or ideas that make people feel something. My dream is to keep growing as a developer and maybe even help others along the way. Creativity, curiosity, and coffee — that’s my stack.
