I have over 20 years of experience in the IT field, with a passion for software development, specifically web and mobile. My journey began at the age of 10, assisting my uncle with building and repairing computers. This sparked my interest in software, and by age 11, I had written my first program using QBASIC on a 386 MS-DOS machine.
In 2006, I became certified as an I.T Service Engineer through an apprenticeship with PartServe, one of the largest I.T companies in South Africa. I worked as an Service Engineer for a few years before focusing on web development, recognizing the increasing importance of the internet in everyday life. By 2009, I had completed my first website and began my professional career in web development.
Currently, I am a permanent employee of the South African Government's Department of Higher Education and Training, where I work as both an I.T Engineer and a Web Developer.
In my free time, I enjoy spending quality time with my family, playing guitar, watching professional skateboarding, and indulging my passion for chess. I am always looking for new ways to challenge myself and expand my skill set.
