Software Engineer
Hey, I'm Kabir, a 2nd year Computer Science student at King's College London!
My passion for technology drives me as an aspiring Software Engineer, and I currently work as a Website Developer outside of my academic commitments.
My journey in technology has been diverse, with hands-on experience in various programming languages. From crafting client-facing projects utilizing HTML, CSS, to diving into more complex languages like C++ and SCALA, I've cultivated a versatile skill set. Among these, my proficiency shines in Python and Java. I've dedicated the last three years to Python, completing a masterclass course and undertaking numerous projects. Additionally, my first-year university projects extensively used Java, further solidifying my expertise in the language.
Beyond coding, I find joy in cricket, a sport I've dedicated myself to for 13 years. During this time, I proudly served as the vice-captain for four of those years.
My experiences both in technology and on the cricket field have instilled in me a sense of discipline, teamwork, and a drive for continual improvement. I'm eager to further my skills and contribute meaningfully to the world of technology.
