💭 For me, 42 means… discovering a new way of learning. I first heard about 42 through a YouTube video showcasing its unique curriculum, location, and the ambitious vision of its founding team. What truly convinced me (and reassured my parents at the time) was seeing how quickly the school became top-ranked alongside prestigious universities worldwide. It showed me that an education system built on freedom could still uphold exceptionally high standards.
🏆Today, I am proud of… my journey as a Solutions Architect at Amazon Web Services (AWS) in Montreal, where I’ve been living for the past three years. But beyond the role itself, I’m most grateful for what 42 taught me: what hard work and software craftsmanship really mean. Those three years trained me to dive deeply into problems, not just thinking I understand something, but truly mastering it. That depth and perseverance later became key differentiators in my career.
💡 If I had to give one piece of advice, it would be… don’t blindly follow the status quo. Dive deep into problems, understand who you’re building for, and do it in a lean, purposeful way, very much inspired by the Lean Startup mindset. Real impact comes from curiosity, focus, and a willingness to go further than surface-level understanding.
