Overview
I am a software engineer who has had an opportunity to work in multiple software development roles. Having completed a bachelor degree in Computer Science at the University of Wollongong (UOW), majoring in Digital System Security, I have a strong foundation in knowledge and experience when carrying out software development projects. Over the past few years, I have had the chance to work in a diverse range of organisations involving the following:
- Responsive HTML/CSS
- Frontend techs: React, React-native, Angular, Electron
- Data communication with REST and GraphQL
- Reactive Programming: RxJS
- Node.js
- Java
- Code management with Git
I am particularly enthusiatic about React, which I have been working with for the last 2.5 years. This portfolio was based on the single-HTML-page portfolio that I first wrote 2 years ago during my university time. [source code]
To practice my React skills, I have rebuilt it into this current portfolio, a Next.js-based project with Material UI. [source code]
