Hi there, My name is Ridwaan. Currently I am taking a gap year to explore options in different careers paths as a Computer Science student.
At my time in college, I had studied Computer Science, Economics and Maths. In which Computer Science was my main interest, more specifically the software/web development sections. Outside of college time I would spend my time volunteering, honing my social, communication and teamworking skills.
During this time, I am currently looking into making new projects using programming languages I am not experienced in, as well as exploring front end frameworks such as React. Furthermore self teaching and utilising courses to sharpen my knowledge in alternative career paths such as Cybersecurity and Data Analysis.
This portfolio is simply used to display my achievements and projects. Covering my academics, skills and future endeavours.
