I'm a student at the Polytechnic University of Bucharest, studying Computer Science which has been developing mobile apps since high school. I enjoy writing software and adore clean and elegant code / products. Other interests involve analyzing people and their motives and contributing to a better society.
In my spare time I like reading, posting on Quora, playing guitar, but most of my time is allocated learning anything new. I would love to know about a lot of things and experiment as much as possible in life.
My career will involve delivering a great GSoC project and the same about my BSc. thesis, pursuing a Master's in Computer Science and softly changing direction to entrepreneurship.
I work as an developer on the Malaria Prevention iOS App with Nicki Hutchen as project manager and Bruno Henriques and Jayaruwan as my mentors.
The Android app will be developed by Yatna with Ankita Kalra as mentor.
Abstract: Malaria Prevention is a Swift application that will aid the Peace Corps volunteers in Africa defend against the Malaria disease.
