A Year 8 student with a passion for technology, coding, and creativity
Hi! My name is Mujtaba Naqvi and I'm a Year 8 student with a big interest in technology and creativity. I started getting curious about coding a couple of years ago and have been teaching myself new programming languages and skills.
I enjoy building websites, experimenting with design, and playing with advanced languages like GoLang and C#. One of my proudest achievements is creating this website, as it shows my progress. I've also learned GitHub collaboration and version control.
At school, I enjoy Maths, Science, and English, as they sharpen logical, creative, and communication skills. Outside of coding, I enjoy discovering fun tech facts and humor through computer jokes.
My goal is to keep improving, learn advanced programming, and maybe create something people worldwide can use. I'm a student with a developer's mindset: curious, hardworking, and ready to face challenges.
View My SkillsI was born on 16 August 2011 in Karachi, Pakistan. I was born into a family and community, which formed the cultural and religious foundation of my life.
I lived in Karachi for the first two months of my life before my family moved overseas due to my father’s employment.
My family moved overseas because my father received a work opportunity. We lived there for approximately seven years, which covered most of my early childhood.
During this period:
10 August 2014 — Sister Born: My sister was born on 10 August 2014. I was nearly three years old at the time, and this marked my first experience of becoming an older sibling.
In 2017, my family visited Australia for the first time. This visit later became significant, as Australia eventually became our permanent home.
My family moved to Sharjah, where we lived for approximately three to four years. This period exposed me to a multicultural environment while still living in a Muslim-majority society.
In 2019, my family permanently moved to Australia, settling in Auburn, New South Wales. I was around eight years old. Auburn was important because it had a strong Muslim community and helped ease the transition into Australian life and schooling.
My younger brother was born on 2 April 2020. I was eight years old at the time, and this increased my sense of responsibility within the family.
During the COVID-19 pandemic: schools shifted to remote learning, families spent extended time at home, and daily routines changed significantly. This period indirectly influenced my growing interest in technology and computers.
In October 2022, my family moved to Hebersham. I attended Hebersham Public School.
In 2022, I began learning coding seriously. I developed an interest in how software and websites work, which later became a long-term skill and passion.
After Hebersham Public School, I attended Blacktown Boys High School until mid-2024. This helped me adjust to high school expectations and responsibilities.
On 26 August 2024, my family moved to Sunbury, Victoria. This was a major cultural adjustment, as the area felt more traditionally Australian and less diverse than previous locations.
In 2024, I earned Coddy Tech certificates in Golang, HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Around this time, I also began exploring artificial intelligence tools, alongside my programming studies.
In November 2025, my family moved to Tarneit. The area has a larger Indian, Pakistani, and Muslim community, which felt more familiar after living in Sunbury.
I am currently 14 years old, continuing my education and developing my skills in coding, technology, and AI.
My life has involved growing up across Pakistan, the Middle East, and Australia. Frequent moves, exposure to different cultures, and strong community influences have shaped my adaptability and interests. Beginning coding in 2022 and earning certifications in 2024 marked an important step toward my future goals in technology.
