about me

I have a passion for creating and planning software with good user interfaces. I have over four years of software development and delivering minimum viable products correctly and on time. Outside of learning new bleeding-edge technologies, I love all things related to basketball and fashion. Check out my github for all the latest projects I'm working on!
