A little bit more about me
I recently finished studying Computer Science at University and whilst I have enjoyed some of my classes I have kept software from becoming a chore by building out my own functionality almost everyday.
I can't speak highly enough about MIT OpenCourseWare for providing the university learning experience that Australian universities are sadly lacking in.
Whilst I dream of making my own fully secure mobile operating system one day I am currently focused on building out my data science knowledge and skills in ways I find
most enjoyable. I have created the largest repository of AFL data on GitHub and I am working every day on expanding that data.
Once I have collected play-by-play and GPS data I aim to apply quantitative models to analyse the sport.
My path as a developer
My passion for software arose with building out my first applications with Java, a language I still love using until today. My first project was an automatic trader bot for the marketplace for Magic the Gathering Online, for a teenager seeing my collections of cards grow just by making small spreads on buying and selling was when I started loving computers for what I could produce just as much as I loved them for what I could consume on them.
I was drawn to the elegance of systems, the art of coding, and the very dynamic ups and downs of problem-solving.
