Skills/Languages
My core skills lie in web development, project management, and quality assurance. On the backend, I have been meddling with several web development frameworks from Laravel (PHP) to simpler micro-platforms like Flask (Python) and Express (Node.js) for many years. On the frontend, I consider the lovely world of Javascript/Typescript spiced with React or Vue.js a fertile ground where a majority of the future applications leverage.
Currently learning
Go, Rust, TypeScript, React Native, Amazon AWS, Microsoft Azure
