I'm a software engineer and have an undergraduate degree in Information Technology. I'm 24 years old. I am a tech enthusiast and actively remain on the watch for new tech products. I like learning about how things work and am fascinated about how computers work.
I grew up taking things apart, starting with toys, and later moved on to computers, laptops, phones, etc. By the age of 10, I got bored of cartoons and started watching shows like How it's Made and Mega Factories on Discovery and National Geographic. I picked up 3D modelling at 13, and that has been one of my favourite pastimes.
I'm interested in Interactive Multimedia, Creative Coding, and Visual and Abstract Programming. I've recently started reading a book titled "About Face: The Essentials of Interaction Design". By the way, I love board games.
I'm leading the effort in building Music Blocks (v4), which is based on Music Blocks — a visual programming language platform that aims to engage children in the arts, mathematics, and computation. The goal is to address the challenges encountered due to the original architecture, and build a more robust and reliable application, from the ground up. I also have plans to undertake the development of a Physics World simulating Dynamics, to aid high school students.
Lately, I've been inquisitive about architecture of software and systems. I'm reading a book titled "Linux Kernel Development" by Robert Love. I want to dive into embedded systems programming sometime.
My primary interest is in full-stack Web Development, and I've been writing web stack code for the last 5 years. I particularly love working on building interactive apps that people can engage with.
