Hello,
my name is Nick

I am an IT Student at Griffith University with a passion for developing neat things.

About Me

Since 2014, I've had an interest in programming and making things. I've made this portfolio as a place for me to collate and show off some of the work that I've done. At the moment, I've returned back to Uni to finish my degree after achieving a point in my career that I am happy with. With the experience I've gained, and after finishing my studies, my plan is to work in the cybersecurity field.

Education & Goals

I am currently studying a Bachelor of Information Technology at Griffith University, opting for a no major or minor option. Having previously studied Computer Science at QUT from 2019-2021, I decided to take a break from study and focus on work experience. As of 2023, I returned to studying at Griffith using the experiences I gained from both QUT and from work. From my previous work experience, employers look more for relevant skills and industry knowledge over the type of degree or the majors and minors you study. The mentorship I gained from those jobs was what influenced me to change my degree over, and to not choose a major. As time has progressed, my goals and ambitions have also adapted. Initially, I wanted to be a systems administrator. Upon reaching that goal, I shifted my gaze to what I wanted to do work towards, setting on cybersecurity. Given that the industry is ever-changing, I felt it appropriate to not hem myself in to a single major or minor.
