Three things about me

I'm a Full Stack Engineer based in Sri Lanka with a career focused on web, mobile and IoT application development. I'm holding a MSc in Computer Science from the University of Peradeniya and a BSc (Honours) degree from the University of Peradeniya. I have 7+ years of experience in enterprise application development.

I'm always up for new challenges and really passionate about learning new technologies and apply them whenever appropriate.I believe innovations are the biggest assets of a company which helps you to step ahead from your competitors.

My passion in new tech and innovations led me to become a better software engineer who always believe in Lincoln's quote "Give me six hours to chop down a tree and I will spend the first four sharpening the ax"
