Profile Summary
I am a self-taught full-stack developer passionate about Data Analytics and Visualisation, Business Intelligence, Cyber Security, and Robotics. Outside of development, I have worked as a product designer and coordinator. I gravitate towards experimental UI design. My hope is to work in robotics and IoT centric organization with a need for automation and/or web development expertise on both clientside and serverside projects.
