About Me
A highly motivated and hardworking individual, who has completed their bachelor’s degree in Applied Computing with first class honours. I am a big foodie, I enjoy trying various foods and cuisines from different cultures and can almost always be found in a restaurant when I'm not working/coding. I also enjoy gaming in my spare time.
Software Developer/Tech enthusiast
I have always been fascinated by quite literally all aspects of computing but of course programming and internet technologies are my primary focus.

Technology has been a huge part of my life from a very young age. Since my mother is a computer programmer and my father works in IT sales, it is only natural. I've been using computers from the age of 1½ (though I'll admit that doesn't sound so impressive with today's youth) and have been an iOS App Developer from the age of 9. Since the I have developed many other skills including video and audio editing, customer support, cocktail making, organisational skills and more.
