% \section{personal profile}

% Actively participate in various programming related meet-up groups \& attend numerous events as well as conferences.

\section{profile}

Enthusiastic \& outgoing with a determined outlook on enhancing software development projects by utilizing agile methodologies with a keen interest in open-source projects.

\textbf{Java} (intermediate): Built my final year project as a educational \textbf{android} game based on CERN that simulated the LHC particle collisions.

Built an \textbf{open-source} GUI based XML-editor that was created from an older tool; re-engineered the previous version to produce PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) code over an NFS network by interacting with a Python script as well as implemented other features like a custom file lock system for the IEPLC project in CERN.

Produced \textbf{open-source modifications} for Call of Duty 4 (PC) within a team of 4; ensuring everything was packed together for regular monthly releases.

\textbf{Javascript}: Currently participating in \href{http://codeyear.com}{Code Year} by completing a new set of Javascript \& jQuery courses each week for a full year.
