About
About Me.
I have a passion for creating innovative pieces of tech for the web. This passion began when I enrolled on a college course covering 18 different units of IT. Web development was one of them! That was back in 2010 and ever since starting my career in 2013, I'm still excited by each day when I can get stuck in on the latest technologies on the front end.
he technologies I have been using recently that I want to continue working with are:
- Javascript ES6
- React/ Next.js
- Redux
- Typescript
- Storybook
As a hobby and to diversify my tech, I'm also learning how to create web games, ustilising a HTML canvas and websocket technology.
