Béryl HOUESSOU

Software developer

My specialties? Listening attentively, clarifying the problem, and solving it.

About

An adaptable, detail-oriented software developer, I'm deeply interested in building functional, scalable software that improves quality of life. I currently work with Node.js [Adonis.js, Express.js, Nest.js], TypeScript, Python, and PostgreSQL, leveraging these technologies to create robust backend solutions.

I'm currently finishing the ALX program in the Backend specialty by developing AskVibe, a platform to streamline event management with real-time features. My professional experience also includes proficiency in Laravel, React.js, Docker and Github, with a strong focus on efficient and collaborative development.

In my spare time, I like to listen to music, watch videos on YouTube and, when I'm not in front of a screen, I like to play basketball or ride my bike. I am continuously learning and striving to understand in depth the tools and technologies I use, ensuring that I can deliver high-quality, innovative solutions.
