I am an aspiring web developer based in London. Most recently I decided to explore the technical aspects required in modern day software development by enrolling into Makers Academy, an intensive 12 week software development course.
The course has allowed me to accumulate a strong foundation and I am now looking for projects and opportunities where I can continue to write clean code and be challenged.
