Hello! My name is Abdur-Raheem Lee. I am a tech savvy individual always looking to learn and understand more about the tech industry.
I am more than just a fast learner, I adapt easily to new environments and I love sharing knowledge I learnt from my past experiences, despite my shy personality. I find that helping others actually help me understand what I know better and I also learn from those who I help.
I stick strongly to my beliefs and I always try to carry the best version of myself.
Based on my level of understanding

At Fortel Investments I was a Telecoms Technician and my job was to joint ADSL and Fibre Optic Cables. Most of the work was done outdoors. There was, however, indoor electrical and networking work as well. During this period, I had to work everyday. More than normal working hours as well. I would put in the extra hours on weekends too to get the work done.

My time at WTC_ as a student was phenomenal. WTC_ is a place, not just to learn, but a hub to share knowledge and connect.
WTC_ strives to create a peer-to-peer learning environment where students can learn from each other and share their experiences with each other.

CoGrammar / LifeChoices Bootcamp
During this course with Life Choices and CoGrammer, I learnt the basics of Python and later moved on to HTML, CSS and JS. It then evolved to React and Node JS with Express. It was interesting to learn about what goes on behind the scenes and how programs and websites are made and function.

The Settlers High School
At High School I never let an opportunity pass by me. I got involved with whatever extracurricular activities I could that could help me in the future (Computer Monitor, Media Team, First-Aid Team, Fire and Safety Team, and more). I took part in these activities so that I could teach myself to work underpressure even when I'm spread out amongst many tasks. I also took Maths, Science and IT which is core for any technical field.
