About Me

Hi, I’m David Akoda, an Integrated MSc student in Electronic Engineering at the Hellenic Mediterranean University in Chania, Crete. My academic journey combines a strong foundation in computer networks, electronics, and systems with a growing passion for full-stack web development and the possibilities of AI integration.

I enjoy learning by building: from course projects like responsive layouts and web apps in PHP/MySQL, to personal experiments with CSS, Flexbox, and Grid. My goal is to be job-ready as a full-stack developer by summer 2026, with a portfolio that reflects both solid engineering principles and modern design practices.

Outside of coding, I work evenings in hospitality, train consistently at the gym, and explore music by connecting with local musicians in Chania. I’m motivated, structured, and committed to continuous growth — whether in my studies, my projects, or my personal pursuits.
