Uzair Shamim

I am a hardworking individual capable of working independently and with teams. I love working with people who like to take creative approaches and iterate on ideas. Knowledge sharing is also important to me and I make sure to present about topics I find interesting at developer conferences! I also have a blog at: https://pureooze.com/blog/
