About

Interested in mobile (personal) computing, I started my career as an Android Developer while developing and designing personal projects at the same time. These years of developing and designing mobile applications intrigued me to know more about how we tend to use technology and how can we develop more natural interactions. As a result, I decided to start a Master's degree in Human-Computer Interaction in the University of Birmingham. I enjoy designing as much as I enjoy developing. I am more interested in the problem being solved than my role in the team.
