About Me

I am a passionate Software Developer. I truly believe software development can be a significant creative outlet. It has a lot of power to create a positive impact by using the tools & resources available at the touch of our fingertips. It is an ever evolving field, giving an ability to always be curious. I have become a structured thinker since I started programming and believe it to be a useful skill in other facets of my life.

When in school, I was a straight-A student. Post-school, I wrote some core features for developing a mobile-app that really challenged my skills and helped grow my expertise.
