About Me

Hi I’m Kevin!

I built this portfolio to show my journey into web development. The projects are organized in chronological order, starting from the most recently completed.

A year ago I had never touched web development, sticking mostly to Java during my studies, with some python thrown in for scripting tasks and the occasional C# project.

After completing my MSc in Computer Science, I took some time off to go travelling and to try new things.

I opened and ran an artisan baked good market stall for half a year. The experience was enjoyable and allowed me to improve my communication, marketing, and business know-how.

After that, I tried my hand at internet marketing. As part of my internet marketing experience, I made simple websites and found that I really enjoyed this portion of the job. During this time I started really getting into Free Code Camp’s project based curriculum. I was drawn to the project-based learning and the chance to help nonprofits. As I found myself spending more and more time learning web development and less time focusing on internet marketing I decided in October of 2016 to follow my passion and dedicate full time to learning web development.

In between these, I also travelled around the United States, Europe, and New Zealand as well as spent my time enjoying my hobbies including woodworking and hiking.
