About me

yusuf's photo

Full stack developer and IT consultant with a passion for thoughtful and functional UI/UX design, collaboration, and teaching. I've never stopped engaging my passion to help others and solve problems. When I'm not coding, you'll find me cooking, swearing at my laptop, reading Tech sources or working out in the park.

As a web developer, I enjoy using my obsessive attention to detail, my unequivocal love for making things, and my mission-driven work ethic to literally change the world. That's why I’m excited to make a big impact by throwing my code at the world.
