About Me

Hello! Ndewo!

This is my official website (est. 2022). I am a scientist and a full-stack software developer with many years of experience in both science and software development. While pursuing my education in pharmaceutical science, I taught myself programming in my free time. As a scientist, I am skilled in various aspects of PK/PD and PB/PK modeling. Take a look at my complete scientific CV. As a freelance software developer, I have designed and programmed (for clients and myself) a lot of apps in various disciplines. I have recently taken offline many of my personal web projects due to maintenance costs. I am experienced in languages such as JavaScript, Java, PHP, SQL, CSS, R, C++ and more. I like teaching myself how to code in these languages, especially the ones with associated frameworks to expedite the coding process. Take a look at my GitHub link above. At the moment, I am learning Python, Rust and VueJs in my spare time. Really cool stuff.

I created, own and maintain a number of (still active) websites including rpkg.net, shinyappstore.com, coursewhiz.org.
