About

I am a passionate developer with a strong background in graphic design. I'm fascinated about the intersection of technology of creativity. I’ve good communication skills, a can-do attitude and am always looking to go the extra mile. Recently I’ve been a graduate in Makers Academy (London's leading programming bootcamp) in order to become upskilled with best practice tools and methodologies. I like to stay up to date with the latest frameworks and programming techniques.
