Hi, I'm Mohammad Danish Hakim bin Mohd Nasir, a Computer Science student specializing in Network and Security at International Islamic University Malaysia (IIUM) in Gombak, Selangor.

Beyond programming, I have digital editing skills in Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator, experience in live streaming with equipment like ATEM Mini Pro and OBS Studio, and a background in robotics from representing my school in competitions for 3 years.
