ABOUT ME
Experienced back-end developer and tutor
Experienced back-end developer and tutor
I have coded and programmed my entire life and currently rounding out these skills while pursuing a Master's Degree in Computer Science. I have a long scholastic road in front of me so freelance work is right up my alley.
With over 10 years of experience, I am most comfortable coding in Python. Additionally, I have worked with C++ and JavaScript ES6, and I am familiarizing myself with golang. I am most passionate about data driven backend tools.
Looking forward to working with you!
