About

With an inquisitive and analytical mind, I have retrained to start a career in software development. Coding has been a hobby of mine through the years and after recently investing into myself, I have finished an intensive 13 week course to learn the skills I will need to succeed. This course has lead to my first year in the development world and I’m keen to move onto the next challenge.

A natural problem solver I have always tried to automate any repeatable job tasks I’ve had throughout my work life. I enjoy streamlining processes and working with others to improve not only my efficiency but also any team I am working on.
