About

So, who is Nuriddin?

Me in London

I am a Graduate Software Engineer. Currently I am doing Bachelor's degree in Computer Science at Anglia Ruskin University in Cambridge, UK.

My career has not started with playing video games, and I was never interested in computers, rather I didn't have one until my 16th birthday. All I really was was a simple kid with just a bag of school knowledge. However, I had a very deep interest in mathematics and whatever can be added, mutiplied or divided. Quick note: subtraction is a negative addition.

You are more than welcome to deep dive into my personal and professional life through my posts.
