Technical:

Java

Java is the language I am most comfortable with. I’ve done a few Java projects such as my GPSMaster project which was a successfull attempt to replicate data statistics that apps such as Runtastic and RunKeeper produce. All code can be found here on my Github account Android

As a result of spending my summer internship at Insight writing Android I’ve become very comfortable with the language. I’ve learnt a lot about the lifecycle of android Activities and Fragments as well as how to save data locally to phone storage as well as other basic Android concepts.

Soft:

I am a confident, reliable worker with good project management and communication skills. I love art and am capable in 3D-modeling software such as Blender. I’m also a good drawer and have a lot of experience using photoshop.
