Summary

There are three responses to a piece of design yes, no, and WOW! Wow is the one to aim for.

I've always known that my dream job would be one that required creativity, which I possess. I completed my undergraduate degree in mechanical engineering with the intention of becoming a design engineer. Later I gravitated towards Information technology and started my career as a software engineer at Capgemini India. But I kind of just felt I yearned to learn more, yearned to learn something different.

And that's when it happened, the spark I was missing ignited the instant I clicked play on my first web development course video on Udemy. Since then, I can't get enough. Front-end web development calls to all my passions, it incorporates creativity and problem solving and I'm allowed to break it to improve the code. I love applying responsive design principles and watching my web pages shrink into mobile screens and still look amazing. It's oddly satisfying. I think in a way I'm kind of those web pages, I am moldable, but I still keep my creative flare intact.

My specialities include quickly learning new skills and programming languages, problem solving, domain driven design, responsive design principles, website optimization and website designs that include animations. So far I have SQL, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, jQuery, Angular, Bootstrap, React, Node.JS, MongoDB and Git under my belt. I've started learning Python. I'm still enthusiastically grabbing onto any other programming languages, frameworks or principles I can integrate into the coding web in my head. I am also into User Experience Design. I am experienced with tools like Moqups, Balsamic and Figma and designed beautiful web pages and mobile applications.
