1.0Hey there, I'm
Richard Neil Ilagan
but most people just call me Carding.
Welcome to my personal nook on the internet! I write about things I'm doing + learning here on this site. I very much enjoy speaking about technology as well.
I most often work on the cloud building prototypes, so I tend to go through a lot of new tech very regularly.
