I started my career with a Business Diploma and had originally intended to go towards "Business Analytics". Then I got so frustrated and bored from manually transferring data from one Excel spreadsheet to another during my first full-time job.

That's when I discovered the world of VBA, automate my work, started hacking together data dashboard in Excel and after earning enough money from that job to fund my studies, quit. I am now pursuing undergrad studies in Computer Science. 😄

Now directing my entire focus towards web development. The idea of having my future application being so easily accessible to people all over the internet excites me. Compared to just having a Macro-enabled Excel that's only available to the organization.
