About me
I'm a student at RMIT University pursuing a master's degree in Information Technology.
I'm a software developer with over an year of experience in developing and maintaining software applications. I'm adept at writing efficient and clean code in multiple programming languages and always committed to staying current with new technologies and industry trends to continuously improve my skills and deliver outstanding results. In addition to my technical abilities, I'm also a strong team player and an excellent problem solver.
In my leisure time, while I enjoy outdoor team sports like cricket and appreciate the collaboration they involve, my true passions lie in gaming, coding, and working out. These activities are where I find the most joy and fulfillment, and they are a central part of my life. Staying active and healthy is also important to me, as I firmly believe in the saying, 'health is wealth.'
I would love to take up Internships or Work Integrated Learning (WIL) opportunities which would help me build the necessary skills and help me understand the industry better. This would also help me to build valuable connections and relationships with professionals in the field and support me in exploring new career paths and making informed decisions about the future.
