Kia Ora, I'm a 2nd year IT student at Otago Polytechnic who is passionate about networks, application development, the cloud, cyber security, programming and in general, how computers work. I am particularly interested in building application and home lab projects not only as a hobby, but also as a way to expand my IT expertise. Alongside studying IT, I am also working as a technical junior.
