Siphiwe 's Story My interest in coding began during high school when I was introduced to basic computer programming concepts. The idea of creating something functional and meaningful from scratch fascinated me. I vividly remember the first time I wrote a simple program—it was a calculator. Though basic, seeing it work gave me a sense of accomplishment and sparked my curiosity about how technology powers the modern world. As I explored further, I realized how coding is at the heart of innovation, from websites and apps to artificial intelligence and data analysis. This discovery motivated me to learn more about different programming languages and the endless possibilities they offered. I enjoyed solving logical problems and building creative solutions, which naturally aligned with my analytical mindset

As a passionate IT student, I enjoy hobbies that combine creativity, learning, and relaxation. In my free time, I love coding and exploring new programming tools or frameworks to improve my skills. I also enjoy working on personal tech projects, like building small apps or experimenting with data analysis, as it allows me to apply what I’ve learned and stay innovative. Outside of technology, I like reading about emerging trends in the tech industry and exploring topics like artificial intelligence and cybersecurity. For relaxation, I enjoy playing video games, as they not only entertain me but also inspire me with their design and functionality. When I’m not in front of a screen, I like spending time outdoors, playing sports, or connecting with friends and family. These activities help me recharge and maintain a healthy work-life balance.
