Hi! I'm Ben Frost, a junior developer with a creative background and a passion for both technology and outdoor adventure.

My journey into software development builds on years of experience in creative digital tools - from crafting 3D models in Blender to video editing and photography. This background gives me a unique perspective on technical challenges, helping me approach problems with both analytical precision and creative flair.

Currently, I'm deepening my expertise in Python and C++, while also exploring the ever-evolving world of web development. My growing fascination with robotics and embedded systems reflects my desire to bridge the gap between software and the physical world, creating solutions that have tangible impacts.

When I'm not coding, you'll likely find me out on Canterbury's mountain bike trails, tackling challenging bouldering problems at the local crag, or exploring New Zealand's stunning hiking tracks. I've recently added scuba diving to my adventures, discovering a whole new world beneath the waves.

I believe my combination of technical skills, creative experience, and love for challenging myself - whether it's debugging code or climbing a difficult route - makes me a well-rounded developer who can bring fresh perspectives to any project.
