About Me

I'm Nigel Chiputura β€” a Computer Science student and backend engineer passionate about building scalable, efficient software solutions that solve real world problems.

My main interests are backend development, database systems, and clean code architecture. I enjoy building desktop apps, exploring full-stack development, and applying data structures and algorithms to boost performance.

When I'm not coding, I'm either planning my next learning goal, brainstorming new ideas, or unwinding with a good bike ride.
