About me

Hi, I'm Umutjan. I'm a computer science student & aspiring software developer based in Victoria, BC, Canada.

I am a lifelong learner with a burning passion for solving problems through the use of technology. I am passionate about all things related to software development, with a special interest in mobile and web applications development, but I'm always open to new experiences with different subfields of software development.

Currently, I am a Mobile Developer intern at Borrowell, an online platform that helps people get personal loans in Canada based on their credit reports. As a Mobile Developer intern, I get to solve a variety of interesting problems on a daily basis which constantly challenges me to improve my skills as a developer. I am also an incoming software development engineer intern at Amazon in the summer of 2022.
