Interests

In addition to my love of programming and all things digital, I am also a 2nd degree black belt in Taekwondo, having practiced for over 10 years.

I enjoy music from all kinds of genres; from classical to EDM, if it "clicks" with me I'll probably have it on repeat. Some of my current favourite bands are Kaleo, Shinedown and Nothing but Thieves.

I attempted to learn Russian at some point in time but now I'm hiding from Duolingo.

I like waffles. And pancakes too.
