Developer
by skill.
Problem solver
by nature.
I'm Othmane — a frontend developer and recent grad from Algonquin College's Mobile Application Design and Development program. I build the interface and write the code behind it, usually in the same sitting.
Before development, I dealt blackjack in a live casino. That environment taught me things no classroom touches — how to stay composed with a pit full of eyes on you, how to read a room fast, and how to communicate clearly when the margin for error is zero. That's where I learned what real pressure looks and feels like.
Before that, I spent seasons planting trees in remote forests — 4,000 in a single day at peak. That work taught me how to push past what feels like a limit, how to take care of yourself when conditions are brutal, and how to pull the people beside you forward when they're close to stopping.
Both shaped how I approach building: show up, stay focused, and do the work without making it someone else's problem.
