My 2025 Vision: Goals and Aspirations

This is a submission for the 2025 New Year Writing challenge: Compiling 2025.

🎯 New Skills to Learn
Accessibility is at the top of my learning priorities for 2025. With the European Union's accessibility legislation becoming more stringent, it's crucial to deepen my knowledge in this area.

I want to ensure that our applications are not just compliant with regulations, but truly inclusive and user-friendly for everyone.
This involves understanding both the technical implementation aspects and the human-centered design principles that make digital products accessible to all users.

💡 Side Projects to Pursue
I'm excited to continue developing my personal achievement tracking app. This project is particularly meaningful as it addresses the common challenge of impostor syndrome in tech.

The app will serve as a personal repository of accomplishments, positive feedback, and milestones that users can revisit during moments of self-doubt. By documenting these victories, both big and small, we can build a powerful tool for maintaining perspective and confidence in our professional journey.

🚀 Career Aspirations
My main career goal is to evolve into a T-shaped developer - someone with deep expertise in iOS development while also maintaining a broad understanding of other development aspects.

This balanced approach to growth will not only make me a more versatile developer but also enable me to contribute more effectively to cross-functional teams and projects.
