Dajel Bourque

I am an Applied Computer Science graduate from Dalhousie University. Throughout my 2nd - 4th year courses, I completed several academic projects which simulated the agile development methodology; working in scrum teams to develop mobile apps and Angular framework web applications for various clients. As such, I am experienced mostly in full-stack application development, but I have an interest in the field of data analytics having recently completed an FCC course on Data Analysis with Python.
