GPA (percentage): 83.33%

My academic period included developing several key projects that established a strong foundation in software engineering, database management, and system administration. These projects, which ranged from a Library Management System (May 2016) to an advanced Real-Time Management App for a trade company (March-July 2017), provided hands-on experience in building comprehensive solutions. I utilized Java extensively across all projects for core programming logic, coupled with MySQL for robust local data handling and JavaFX for desktop application interfaces. A significant personal business project expanded my skills to include real-time cloud services, where I built an Android tablet app using native technologies and the Google Firebase suite (Authentication, Database, and Storage), complete with enhanced testing solutions to ensure high performance and usability. Overall, these nine weeks of focused development work showcased proficiency in full-stack implementation, diverse database technologies (SQL and NoSQL), reporting using JasperReports, and collaborative development using the Agile methodology.
