15 About Me

15.1 Hi, I’m Ann Naser Nabil! 👋

I’m a software engineer on a mission to demystify Data Structures and Algorithms. Like many of you, I used to find DSA intimidating. It felt like a secret code I wasn’t cool enough to understand.

But I realized that it’s not about being a “genius”—it’s about patterns, practice, and persistence.

15.2 Why This Blog?

“My DSA Journey” is my personal digital garden. It’s where I document what I learn, not just the “what” but the “how” and the “why”.

I created this resource because I wanted to move away from dry, academic textbooks and create something that feels like a conversation. Here, you’ll find:

  • My Personal Notes: The explanations that finally made concepts click for me.
  • Struggles & Breakthroughs: Honest accounts of what I found hard and how I overcame it.
  • Practical Patterns: The templates I use to solve problems efficiently.

15.2.1 My Philosophy

“Don’t memorize, visualize.”

I believe that if you can draw it, you can code it. My goal is to build a visual intuition for every data structure and algorithm.

15.3 Let’s Connect!

I’d love to hear from you. Whether you have a question, a suggestion, or just want to say hi!
