I am a passionate software developer who recently graduated from a 16-week, full-time Bootcamp provided by Makers Academy.
My love for tech started in university when I learnt the basics of Java, and I have been looking for ways to explore this area more.
The ability to write different code to solve a single problem has improved my critical thinking and stretched my comfort zone, which reminds me a lot when I was studying Mathematics.
Throughout the course, I learned how to write reusable and clean code with the help of TDD practices, organise a group project using Agile methodology and communicate effectively during pair-programming sessions.
