About Me

I am a recent computer science graduate from Wits University with experience as a software engineer.

My journey in software development has taken me through various technologies and frameworks. I have a strong understanding of how the web works and like designing and overseeing the development of software. System architecture and design are the aspects of software development I’m most passionate about. I believe in continuous learning, agile methodologies, and the power of teamwork.

When I'm not coding, you'll find me keeping up to date with new technologies, playing my favourite online games with my friends or staying active.
