🌺 Hi! Kia ora! Kamusta? Alles goed?

My name is Ally and I'm a Filipina-Kiwi-(almost)Dutch software engineering student based in Amsterdam. I'm currently studying at Codam Coding College, which is part of the 42 Network. I'm interested in systems programming, backend development, and building practical web applications. In my free time, you can find me either programming, creating art, or watching something from the criterion collection!

I mainly work with C and C++, building low-level projects that explore how operating systems, concurrency, and networking work under the hood.

🔧 Current projects:
getHomeSafe - Safety-focused routing app using TomTom Maps SDK with planned features including route planning, location tracking, and real-time sharing
webserv – building an HTTP/1.1 web server from scratch in C++
codamHero – contributing to the UI redesign of one of Codam's internal platforms

📂 Previous projects
Minishell – a custom Unix shell supporting command execution, pipes, redirections, and environment variables
so_long – a small 2D game built in C using a lightweight graphics library
Philosophers – a multithreading project solving the classic Dining Philosophers problem using mutexes and synchronization

🏆 Hackathons
Chessbot – C-based chessbot using Minimax with alpha-beta pruning, piece-square evaluation, and mobility heuristics. Placed third overall!
Inclusivity bias detector – Python NLP model detecting inclusivity bias in job descriptions using TF-IDF, KNN, and BERT embeddings; work included data preprocessing, modeling, and evaluation.

💻 Tech Stack:
Languages: C • C++ • Python • JavaScript • TypeScript
Frontend: HTML • CSS • Nunjucks • Figma
Backend / Tools: Node.js • NPM • Docker • Git
Machine Learning: Pandas • PyTorch • scikit-learn

💫 Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn if you have any questions about my work, my approach to coding, or any collaboration ideas!
