ABOUT ME

Full Stack Web Developer/Rustacian

I am a full-stack developer with solid experience in building for both ends.

I enjoy debugging, refactoring, using as little lines of code as possible and test driven development. I ask a lot of questions as they help me understand a situation better.

I do enjoy building something that seems like a long shot, for even after the results come, be it failure or success, I know that I would be better than when I started out.

I also do believe that "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough.".
