Bio

I have recently finished my 4th year exams in ITB (2017) for a Bachelor of Science (Honours) degree in Computing with a 2.7 GPA, and graduated in November.

For my final year project, I have made a fun e-learning game that will help children with Dyslexia and Dyscalculia to learn maths and English. This is done by testing them with multiple choice and input style questions. This was programed in C# and you can download the apk here or read my thesis here.
