About Me
My specialty is C++ and I am very comfortable with python for scripting purposes. I mostly have experience working in a Windows environment, but I am also comfortable (and prefer) working in a Unix environment.
My main qualities are attention to detail, learning agility, teamwork and self-management.
I am very curious, love asking questions but also sharing my knowledge and experience. I am also resourceful and self-disciplined. After all, I performed the entirety of my degree remotely, before we were forced to by the pandemic!
