About
I am a Sydney-based Software Engineer, and a graduate of General Assembly’s: Software Engineering Immersive course. I have a Masters of Commerce majoring in Management, and have been an Operational Manager for Safeguard Protective Services since 2013. I specialise in Project Management and have over 10+ years experience in managing over 45 Staff simultaneously.
Full-Stack Web Developer
My choice of frameworks are usually MERN or MEVN Stacks. With Ruby on Rails being a close third. Currently, I'm located in the Alexandria but I'm happy to relocate if work requires me to.

Prior to studying at GA, I would use Web Scrapers to gather data from Government websites and store the information on Excel. So that whenever new DA approved venues entered the market, we knew about it. This gave our firm the head start we needed and improved overall business development. I also developed the company website using WordPress. Things were going great, however due to the COVID outbreak, Safeguard has ceased over 70% of its operations. So I decided if there was ever a time for a career change, and for me to chase my long-term dream of becoming a Full-Stack Web Developer, it’s now.
