Mintesnot Leliso

Driven by faith,
fueled by creativity.

I'm a Christian whose faith is deeply rooted in Jesus Christ. I have a strong passion for programming and graphic designing, and I draw motivation from the belief that God has blessed me with the ability to pursue these skills.

Currently, I'm a medical student at St. Paul's Hospital Millennium Medical College in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia β€” pursuing this path with purpose: to tackle healthcare challenges by combining medical training with technology.

I believe, by God's grace, this vision will become a reality in the near future.
