I’m a Software Engineer Specializing in Back-End Web Application Development
Hi, my name is Leo.
I’m a recent Computer Science graduate with a foundation in Computer Science theory and practical experience from a coding bootcamp.
I am deeply fascinated by the intersection of computer science and biology, as well as their applications in healthcare, medicine, food and agriculture.
Additionally, I possess a deep fascination for the convergence of computer science and operations management. I am captivated by the various areas where computer science and operations management synergize, such as supply chain management systems, logistics and transportation, operations research, business analytics, and the Industrial Internet of Things.
By combining the computer science with operations management principles, I aim to drive innovation, optimize complex systems, and contribute to the advancement of technology-driven solutions.
