About Me

My Avatar

Hi! I'm Liam, a member of the Univeristy of Guelph alumni and a passionate web developer.
Over the last few years I have spent many hours expanding on my knowledge and skills as a programmer which is showcased down in the Projects section. Professionally, my focus has been on web development, specializing in VueJS. My work has also allowed me to work with frameworks such as Laravel and Flutter. When I'm not taking on exciting new programming projects, I enjoy playing video games, following ARGs, hitting the gym, and spending time with friends and family.
