I’m a Junior Java Developer with a solid background in Product Management. Currently wrapping up Phase 2 of my Learning Path, I’ve built a robust foundation in core Java, Spring Boot, and database design—and I’m already delivering production-grade features in my side projects.
I follow a structured roadmap—from Core Java through Advanced Spring to Microservices & DevOps.
Check out the full syllabus, progress bars, and upcoming milestones in my Learning Path repo.
