Final year student at the University of Auckland. Loves building solutions that serve their purpose seamlessly, or automating a chain of processes until it can't be more automated. Might have to try countless different implementations, or read through old documentations that no soul has visited since 2010, but at the end of the day, it's all worth it when something finally works as intended. Aspires to contribute to impactful software projects.

- Arch Linux system completely customized for personal use, likes to mess with Linux systems.
- CLI game simulating blackjack involving the player, 2 other player bots, and a dealer bot. Utilizes OOP design patterns to implement changing bot behaviours.
- (WIP) JavaFX app, it is fundamentally a timer that helps to time and monitor the user's workflow when using the pomodoro technique. Personally want to enrich the pomodoro process with more app features to make studying more fun & attractive.
I usually play a supportive role in teams. When there is a position unfilled or a task unattended, I'm willing to take it over and get it done. However, I've recently been discovering leadership skills, so I'm more than willing to organize meetings, direct decision making and delegate tasks.
