About Me Aspiring Software Developer Passionate Linux User Curious Tinkerer Problem-Solver Problem-Maker Massive Nerd Reformed Perfectionist

Welcome to my kitchen - where everything is half-baked, but made with love.

G’day! I'm Jay, a software developer based in Melbourne, Australia. I've dabbled in programming since high school, where I started designing Flash games with ActionScript. Over the years, I've explored programming as a hobby, creating chatbots and browser-based games.

In a recent IT role, I began writing scripts to automate system administration tasks. This project evolved into a full-stack application - I found a sense of pride in developing my own tools to automate boring or error-prone tasks. I decided I want to make this my career, and went on to complete a post-graduate degree in Development and Programming at Swinburne University.

Now, I'm seeking an entry-level or junior role in backend development to continue growing my skills and make more things I'm proud of.

My natural curiosity, customer-centric approach, and passion for all things IT are my greatest assets. If you think I'd be a good fit for your team, I'd love to hear from you.
