# Welcome!

My name is Dean Malan. I'm a software engineer from Cape Town, South Africa 🇿🇦, currently pursuing a master's at the African Institute for Mathematical Sciences (opens new window).

I studied computer science at Stellenbosch University and have been working as a developer for eight years now. I'm most experienced in Python 🐍 . I've worked extensively with Django and Flask, and in other languages with Laravel, VueJS, ReactJS and D3js.

In my free time I enjoy hobbies including reading, watching films, cooking, listening to podcasts, swimming and playing football.

You can also find me answering questions on StackOverflow, tweeting on Twitter, LinkedIn or github.

I maintain the easy-equities-client (opens new window) and google-pay-token-decryption (opens new window) open source Python packages.

Bored? Play my cat and dog breeds guessing game (opens new window).
