Summary
I am an HTML/CSS Web Developer from Kharkiv, Ukraine, currently based in Lisbon, Portugal. I’m looking for an internship or junior-level position to re-enter the tech field and continue growing professionally.
I have experience in building websites, WordPress themes, and email templates. I’m also comfortable adding and configuring jQuery plugins. However, I don’t have solid knowledge of pure JavaScript or modern frameworks like React, Vue, and others, but I’m highly motivated to learn and grow in this direction.
In addition, I enjoy working on website performance and optimization. I have experience improving site speed and technical quality to achieve high scores in Google PageSpeed Insights, something I find both challenging and rewarding.
Although I have over 12 years of web development background, I haven't worked in IT for the past five years. During that time, I ran a photo studio focused on producing stock photography. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, war, and the rise of AI-generated content, I had to close the studio and relocate.
Now, I’m actively seeking a job, not only to restart my career, but also to learn the language, integrate into society, and support my family. I enjoy playing table tennis and padel, I’m learning to surf, and I have a strong passion for photography.
