About
UI/UX Designer & Full Stack Developer
Hello! My name is Maria Rafi, and I am a passionate Full Stack Developer with a strong foundation in web development. I recently completed a Coding Traineeship with IT Career Switch, where I gained hands-on experience in both frontend and backend technologies.
During my traineeship, I successfully developed two practical projects: a Gazetteer application and a Company Directory system. These projects allowed me to apply my skills in building responsive user interfaces, managing data, and creating functional web applications. I am eager to continue growing as a developer, contributing to innovative projects, and building efficient, user-friendly digital solutions.
