Yonatan Berihun

Aspiring Inspired Developer | Lifelong Learner

Hello! I'm Yonatan Berihun, a passionate and resilient aspiring developer currently in my third year of Information Systems at Hawassa University. My journey into technology began with a challenging introduction to C++, but that initial struggle ignited a relentless drive in me.

Instead of being discouraged, I dedicated myself to mastering the craft, quickly expanding my skills to include C, C#, Python, Dart, and Java. This experience taught me to be a persistent, teachable, and lifelong learner who thrives on overcoming obstacles.

Today, I am a relentless problem-solver, driven to build innovative solutions and continuously learn. I don't just write code; I embrace challenges and remain persistent until I achieve my goals.
