# about
Hey, my name is Sam and I am a software engineer mostly working on backend and distributed systems. I like to build things from scratch, understand how things work and how data moves as well well what keeps systems running when something isn’t right.
I attended Achimota Senior High School in Ghana, and then did my Bachelor’s in Chegndu, China. At the moment, I am completing my Masters in Software Engineering program in Bolzano.
