Hi there! I'm Nicholas , I love to design and code beautifully simple things.
Nothing excites me more than learning something new and starting a new adventure.
Always looking out for opportunities.
Currently working at BandLab Technologies.
About Me
Never too late to learn
I always thought my dream was to be a licensed aircraft engineer, it seemed like an appropriate dream given my education path, but I always felt mundane.
It all changed when I had my first and only programming module in university, the fascination it produced when I wrote my 1st Hello World program on Python.
Since then, I have taken a liking in web development which comprises of problem-solving skills and creativity.
Graduated B.Eng. with Honours in Aircraft Systems Engineering, from SIT.
