Kyle Finch

I am a recent graduate who is looking to make a career pivot into software development. I am taking two course at the moment which are helping me learn the foundations of JavaScript and React.js.

I am a former professional sportsman, and so attention-to-detail and the learning everyday attitude is something I hold close to my ethics. I have made good progress with my learning curve in software development so far, and I am looking for an opportunity to continue this growth.
